- a question I have been pondering.
1) Poor preparation for the 'exercise' - no apparent recognition that systems might fail and what to do if they do
2) IMO incorrect actions at the stall
3) In view of MFS's post (2 Mar 12:50) I have to say we may not actually know what the crew were seeing for IAS, and, indeed apparently we cannot assume it to be correct?
