Trim was no problem, because we reacted at the first onset of the stick shaker.
What we did not do, was waiting for 8 seconds after stick shaker activation to fly the recovery. The turkish crew did not wait either. Their problem was the throttle retarding again. 6 seconds idle is not survivable when flying stall avoidance.
Lessons apart from basic flying is:
-Building in RA comperator which gives you a RA disagree, however this would not been spotted by a crew which does no instrument scan
-Programming a new reversion mode if the speed is too low, even on the G/S, no matter what mode the A/T is in.
