Razoray.
..what also doesn't sit well is the fact that the plane just fell out of the sky in a deep stall. The tail didn't tear off, the engines didn't fail, there was no "act of God"...
Lord give me strength!

There was no b*oody deep stall, man.

The pilot held the stick hard back. THAT is what kept the aeroplane stalled.

Whenever he got tired and released the back-pressure, the poor aeroplane started to recover. Then, he pulled it back again!

Can people read the definition of 'deep stall' or 'super-stall' before using those phrases?
