I really wasn't going to reply again but... like a tickle...
fullforward, people like me? I have a Master in aerospace engineering and am working on my PhD (in the area of aerodynamics). I don't appreciate being labeled 'people like you'. I probably know more than you about stalls.
The fact is, and this is an indisputable FACT, the plane was fully functioning and the pilots crashed this plane into the ocean. Talking about auto-trim, psychological anomalies or design flaws are the conspiracy here, not me stating the obvious that the pilots didn't know how to fly the plane. Don't shoot the messenger.
