It is instructive that the previous crew turned the stab trim switches off and landed safely.
SLF question...
I infer from your post that you are saying that the previous crew was better than the one that (pace to their souls) died in the crash.
An aircraft certification requires that the plane should be flown by an average pilot, who was the average pilot? the one that flown the previous sector or the one the one that was flying the last sector?
