Just seen the animation from the MAAF (Mishap Analysis & Animation Faciliity) which as already pointed out shows 1,3,4 throttles advanced then after coming back to flight idle then 1,2,4 are pushed forward.

The tape starts 6 miles from the rwy so a lot of the CVR is missing and you don't hear any briefing but what was noticeable is the number of crew talking againsnt one another. A mention is made of a checkerboard, which I assume is an airspeed warning, which is not picked up until too late. One member of the crew states "I'm concerned" twice but again appears to be far to late to be oof value.

It's no wonder that the last real comment heard was "Oh sh1t"

I can't host it myself but if someone can I'm happy to e-mail that person. Its 6Megs in size.
