The easiest fix was to automatically apply a little nose down trim at high angles of attack.
I'm just an old retired pilot.
Couldn't the same effect have been achieved by inputting nose down elevator? At least the crew would be kept in the picture and no lasting aerodynamic input would have been involved.
