QUOTE: deSitter
BOAC above presented a report from Der Spiegel that a certain Prof. Huettig had re-created the incident in the simulator - the THS went up and stayed there - curtains. This seems to me to be the smoking gun in this crash.

In a previous posting I mentioned the AirCanada DC8 run away stabilizer trim causing an impossible force required by the pilots to pull effective up elevator even with their feet against the panel! This accident ended up with a big hole in the ground near the town of St Therese in Quebec, Canada.
Why should the AB 330 be any different and why would AB disqualify the
good professor Huettig's findings? There are just too many questionable things going on and we cannot rule out the industrial lobby's forces trying to influence the findings.
