I also have heard of a AA aircraft that was turned on its side (the degree of which I don’t know) during a pitch runaway.
if my nose is pitched up at some angle that I know I can’t sustain, nor can I correct, banking the aircraft is next.
Interesting read by Capt Jack McMahan on that flight, slightly different then the VanderBurgh telling and very interesting. Either way, amazing that they got the aircaft down.
Another good read on a prior pprune thread below the 1080 link.
