Question is whether elevators always have sufficient authority in a/c with below wing engines to overcome pitch up tendency from any commanded increase in thrust, even ill advised ?
I tried the Turkish AMS scenario in the sim the other day. To recover from stick shaker with full thrust requires full forward control column is required just to stay at a level pitch. It takes several seconds to trim out the forces. But this is enough to take it out of stick shaker almost immediately.
