"FDR data further
indicate that when the stick shaker activated, there was a
25-pound pull force on the control column, followed by an up
elevator deflection and increase in pitch, angle of attack."


Kind of wondering why the "pull" on the control column, and not a "push"??
When a stick shaker goes off, that should indicate that anymore pitch UP would exacerbate the situation.

It'll be interesting.
