"probable causes of this accident were the inappropriate control inputs applied by the flying pilot during a stall recovery attempt, [and] the failure of the nonflying pilot-in-command to recognize, address, and correct these inappropriate control inputs . (Summary)"
"... the airplane remained in an aerodynamic stall condition because the PF held significant back pressure on the control column all the way to impact.(2.2.1)"
