"unrestricted" vs "full manual" ?

@AZR:
Perhaps you interpreted "unrestricted" as "full manual" ?
OK, AZR, I yield to your semantics.

But I hope the pilots did not really intended for the trim to go full nose up. I don't like to use the word panic to describe the situation but things sure are pointing in that direction. That's what happened in Buffalo and it was 100% fatal there too.
