Interesting report. It's mentioning twice that the CVR worked and nothing much. I'm glad it worked but I guess it could be even more interesting to have some details about its content.

According to the FDR the captain retracted the flaps to 25 at 240 ft resulting in increasing the pitch up attitude while the AP was already pulling on the nose to follow the glide until reaching 14 degres nose up. The AP finaly disconected following the stick shaker when the FO pushed on the stick at 170 ft and around 100 kts.

Usualy retracting flaps in dead stik approach is associated to a nose down command and speed increase, not the contrary.
