t54: "In the info released so far there is no mention of what the PF did after that stall warning caused by his nose down inputs. It's just surmise that he stopped nose down inputs at that point."
You seem to be laboring under a misconception. The nose down simply reduced AoA.
I'm talking about when they were on the way down - not the warning at the start of the stall.
The report tells of nose down inputs and (consequent?) stall warnings sounding. Possibly the pitot readings had been invalid due to the large angle of attack - and nose-down validated them and so the stall warning sounded?
