Instead of swearing some crew communication could have helped to detect that the AP failed to be disconnected as it was believed.
which will, no doubt, bring down the wrath yet again of the god-like pilots on poor old sfly. But, people, she has a point. Throughout my reading of this thread I've been amazed by the pure coolness displayed by these guys in leaving the a/p engaged until it tripped at stick-shaker. What faith in automation!
and now it turns out the F/O "omitted" to disengage it. That doesn't sound like a deliberate (and oh so cool) action.
And surely you guys out there see the point. Might it have been better to hand-fly from the moment the problem was identified? Perhaps not. Certainly the outcome could hardly have been better. But I think we'd all like to know.
