As I read it, they attempted a VS mode climb to 410, stalled the aircraft, which induced stalls/overtemp/flameout in both CF34s, followed by core lock, botched APU light, botched airstart attempts, flew past several fields where deadstick landings might have been successful -
The litany of missed opportunities to salvage the flight reads like a Stephen King novel. There are times when the best crew in the cosmos runs out of luck - but sometimes a crew is in over their heads 15 min. after rotation.
