The Monarch aircraft accident imho has few un-answered questions in that their was a timing anomaly on the FDR read out. Of interest after the aircraft returned to service it “ de rotated” markedly on landing. Whilst I had nothing to do with the Gib incident I had enough interest to get the FDR pulled to see what it said about the de rotation I experienced. The FDR showed I had applied 1/2 up elevator to arrest the de-rotation. Note no hard nose wheel contact was experienced as I arrested it. I still wonder why it did it as not a usual 757 trait.
