At stick shaker with an airspeed of (from memory) approximately Vref minus 25, the stab trim had wound back to about 12-14 degrees back trim
This is digression but since you mentioned I need to comment on these accidents. This Vref-25 in Turkish, Vref-27 in Indian Airlines, Vref-31in Asiana with two pilots sitting in front and in two of these during command checks, in absolutely fine weather is simply unacceptable standard of piloting. Automation dependency means inability to fly without automation not inability to monitor flight path on auto pilot. I don't think they had the required scan to apply the stall recovery procedure at low level.
