And you dont have much time to catch it either.
Three things saved me that night:
1) Attitude and thrust, its all you've got, but it works.
2) The good fortune of working for a carrier that spent a lot of sim. time working on the non-normal checklist when it changed a few years back.
3) A ten thousand hour F/O who was priceless on the night.
Not sure that either crew in incidents were so lucky.
George - I hope you don't mind a few questions. I'd like to learn from your experience.
With stick shaker going was there an AOA fault?
What was found to be the source of the event you describe?
What model was that?
How did that experience compare with applicable training?
Thanks in advance,
