I am not a pilot but I have read this whole thread and would like to get this clarified. The captain was saying 'No, no, no, don't climb'. Doesn't that indicate that he is aware of the stall? And after the computer voice is saying 'pull up, pull up', the captain replies 'Go on: pull'. Is he saying that because he realizes that it is impossible to recover from a stall at below 4000 ft?
Also, why doesn't the captain resume control? Is he just standing there the whole 3.5 minutes?
