I find it interesting that the flightcrew have reported stick shaker stall warning occurred “during take off roll”, instead of reporting that stick shaker occurred on rotation. We know that take off roll includes rotation, but if the stick shaker occurred on rotation then saying that it occurred on take off roll, rather than saying that it occurred on rotation, would be perceived as a deliberate ambiguity.
Therefore we should charitably assume that the stick shaker occurred on the take off roll before rotation. Before rotation the nosewheel is on the ground so the stickshaker has no business to be operating and the conclusion would reasonably be that the stickshaker was in error and a false warning.


you could be right, but then again I may have misread this
