Indeed. And What strikes me by reading the same sentence is that
a situation possibly unrecoverable is not clearly defined. Why would a situation be unrecoverable?
- Because the plane cannot recover ("locked in stall")? That's not demonstrated, and in fact AF447's FDR traces tend to prove the contrary.
- Because the plane may not have the height needed to perform the recovery, this height being larger as the stall is more pronounced/longer held? That's more how I understand "possibly", here.
