-14:24:06, crew called out V1
-14:24:10, CVR records a pilot saying "rotate"
-Data recording signals front wheel sensor change of state
-No sound from TOWS.
-Altitude reached 12,2m (40 feet).
-15 seconds after rotation is initiated stick shaker comes on.
-4 seconds later, aural stall alarm (synthetic voice sounds twice stall, stall)
I'm a bit confused here. Shouldn't the stall warning go off earlier?

Did the aircraft actually get airborne WITHOUT the STALL warning going off?
OR, does it mean the acf rolled for 15 sec on MLG (NLG in the air)
before lifting off - then - was airborne for 4 sec before it stalled?

During these 19 sec (15+4), the acf would have moved about 1500m!

Is the stickshaker/stall warning activated by WOW on the NLG or MLG?
