Cheers Deano, it's amazing how quickly you forget stuff like that.

So according to the NTSB latest

Chealander says the preliminary investigation indicates the autopilot was still on when the plane crashed.
If the A/P was still engaged then it would appear that the stick shaker and pusher haven't activated. Unless there was a problem with these systems this would indicate that the aircraft never stalled. Curiouser and curiouser.
