MountainBear, Jando:
I think you both have good points. I've questioned the stall warning logic before.
Irrespective of whether or not it would have made any difference to the outcome of this accident, it seems bad and wrong to me.
I don't think anyone could reasonably have foreseen that it might be necessary or helpful to warn the crew of a civil aircraft that they were so far outside the envelope the AOA sensors were no longer giving useful data.
Until this accident.
MountainBear, with the benefit of hindsight the aural progression should perhaps be SILENCE -> STALL STALL STALL -> FLY THE F**KING AIRCRAFT
It's not something that was considered before, but if you're below 60kts and in the air, those computers should be screaming at you, under (Asimov) Laws 1, 2, and 3.
