Fred - can I ask you to try and sift through this thread as well? The a/c is easily controlled with full power in a normal go-round. It was the extreme trim condition which exceeded the elevator authority. As 'certified' for use, the 737 is perfectly safe and easy to fly. Boeing should not be expected to build a system to cater for what appears at this stage to be gross incompetence.
FE - I don't think so. Full automatic g/a remains available from a 2 channel stall, I believe, although it would be ****** exciting and as I said before, I would not encourage selecting TOGA to engage that!
