One thing that I don't understand is that it's being said now that the g/a was done improperly, as it couldn't work at all without ILS. However, from the trajectory of flight I remember that the a/c actually was rising already when it hit the first tree, so somehow finally the landing was aborted - it's the puzzle I am still missing as to the final moments - as I'd understand it, if g/a is initiated improperly then the aircraft trajectory wouldn't change and it would simply fly into ground - yet it seems it started to raise in final seconds...
That is explained very well in the MAC report starting page 165. See also Figure 49 of the report on tpage 166.
The PF pulled at the steering horn with some 15 Kg force, leading to a stabilator deflection of 20° pitch up, which force-disconnected the autopilot.
