From: I am where I am and that's all where I am.
Ref PickyPerkins at 1307:

So now we have training to possibly ignore stall warnings on cruise, possible training to pitch up and apply more thrust to abort the impending stall, a possibly massively out of trim aircraft as a result of the pitch up, and training that specifically eliminates reference to the trim wheels. This was at the demands of the airlines. This does not precisely match events in this situation. But it explains important parts of it. (And I hope AF decides to add the RHS to its FDR records. I'm thinking that RHS and LHS did not see the same thing at all. Is this possible? I thought the units were supposed to talk to each other and vote.

When this all finally visits a courtroom it does not look at all good at this moment, to me, for Air France. It certainly is not the pilot's fault if he follows his training, perhaps a little too well.

It will be interesting to see of appropriate parties pick up on Perky's message and notice similarities between actions apparently taken and the training issues discussed.
