However as I understand, it is being fairly strongly sugested in some quarters, that in this incident there was a sudden & very excessive pitch up. Was this not exactly what happened a few months ago to the Airbus over North West Australia? Not making any point at all, but might this be food for thought?
You may have missed the new facts brought into this discussion by the readout of the DFDR that associated the rate of pitch up (Sudden???) with engine increase in power. Some of us are thinking about mode change but the discussion is wide open for rational thought
