Some of the conclusions sound quite familiar:
The pilot flying applied inappropriate control column back
pressure during the stall recovery attempt in an inadequate
performance of the stall recovery procedure established in ABX’s
operations manual.
Although the pilot flying trimmed the airplane below the
recommended minimum trim speed for the clean stall, this action
did not contribute to the accident.
The pilot not flying, as the pilot-in-command, failed to recognize,
address and correct the pilot flying’s inappropriate control inputs.
The inoperative stall warning system failed to reinforce to the
flightcrew the indications that the airplane was in a full stall during
the recovery attempt
This accident might have been prevented if the flightcrew had been
provided a clear, direct indication of the airplane’s angle of attack.
