- good call, Sir.
To the contrary, pedantic rants discussing the nuances of pitch characteristics in various AB FBW laws belong in the tech section. (not accusing you of rants btw)

This string is about the final statements uttered by the doomed crew and I suspect that many readers can't understand why something as simple as a stall killed 200 someodd persons. And why the crew would be so totally confused. That in itself is quite a different subject than the latest AF447 string. Contrary to the name, it's quite obvious that professional pilots make up something less than the majority around here. I think it reasonable to keep this string alive and out of the purgatory called AF447 string 1,2,3,4,5,6, and so on.
