(pax) I read the report and found it apparently thorough but a bit ' discursive'. It is as if they wanted to make the report a ' home' for everything they considered or photographed. The -1.4g excursion got my attention, as did the observation that uncontrolled leg movements are considered a typical sign of loss of personal control, which I assume means what a layman may call ' panic'. I think it harsh to blame the F/O given the timeline and collapsing situation with the PF hands locked on the column, pressing the trim switch and pumping the pedals. The fact that the PF kept harping on about the speed excursion, including engaging with cabin crew on this, perhaps indicates his mental calm was fragile before the long hold which was indicative of his anxiety to avoid a diversion. A dreadful read and a very great pity. The F/O was getting there but there wasn't time for him to recover the situation given the dynamics.
