For the record, as well I find G.G.'s summary markedly off the centre-line. That's from a person who agreed on all observations made by 737driver and fdr. For the latter it is certainly not a surprise, however, the former had received a lot of friendly and undeserved fire IMHO. With so many lives lost unnecessarily, the aim for everyone is taking as many lessons as possible for their own job.

At the edge of the envelope, an aeroplane must behave in a predictable manner and provide tactile resistance of sufficient and increasing magnitude.
Encountering unreliable airspeed event at take-off, a pilot shall assure for the necessary power + pitch to continue climbing safely.

Each of them being correct does not make the other one less true. Two gas pedals, two feet.
