Whaledog: Ok the Fo screws up. you prasie the aircraft,
WHERE THE HECK WAS THE CAPTAIN?????
This is a very good question. At any rate, the alpha floor on the A300-600 is a stall protection feature, not an unusual attitude protection at low altitude. It would not have "saved the day" in this case, if the crew had persisted. So yes, where was the Captain? It's really fishy when both pilots are having a bad day at the same time...
