Who said this is not as important as what it means:
"The Pilot, if input ND would cause the THS to follow." (POST STALL).
That is categorically incorrect. No "sustained input" would budge that THS off NUFULL. Neither would it have moved UP if there was room left for it.
I think it was FUNCTIONALLY locked. takata told us so, and I believe him.
It was essentially unavailable, PARKED in NU. No excuses for STALLSTALL, but once STALLED, this a/c was done. IMHO.
It is shown in airtren's and mm43's graphs. Why the THS moves only that one time, and directly to FULLNU? And then STAYS PUT?
The g traces. And ALTERNATE LAW COMMANDMENTS.
If so, and I truly believe it to be the case, that might limit the Pilot's options?
I think the PF's insistence on NU had a (good) reason, and simply because we can't see it, does not make it laughable.
I also think his efforts at flying had zero to do with what he may have thought of a long litany of numpties may have in the way of judgment for him. (To include myself, with respect).
