Hi All,
If the pilots mistakenly believed they were in windshear conditions, it might explain why the pitch attitude was around 17.5 degs for most of the time, and why full back stick was used to prevent height loss iaw QRH 1.26.
I've seen some crews in the sim simply rely on FBW stall protection (rather than piloting skill) to nibble in and out of the stall warning during wind shear exercises.
