3. It is not known the condition of the pilots' displays. The Data divulged on this thread is from a source unavailable to the crew during their ordeal.

4.From the awkward interaction between the two (then three) pilots, some problem can be taken re: at least the Flying Pilot's displays (screens).

5. There is no conclusion re: some interesting observations made by the pilots themselves: "What was that?" "I feel some crazy speed"....etc. "ER....What are you doing?"....et al.


6. Additionally, these noises and artifacts are not released as found, and given the BEA make no comment with exposure of their evidence, the conclusions here are completely unsupported.

7. With his very first input, the Pilot was greeted with a STALLWARN, cricket, sufficient one would think to start a cascade of confusion from a cascade of data, some important, some less so, some completely unnecessary.

It is quite possible that 5 degrees NU was completely insufficient, and without knowing the data supplied to the crew, the "book" may have been worse than the reality.

It is painfully clear that the situation was challenging, despite the protest of those who believe it was just another night at the office.

Hopefully, and with a complete record, more will be known. It is possible what the pilots had to deal with will never be known. To the extent that leaves the crew open to ridicule, such is life.

In a community that trumpets perfection, it would appear ironic that most are happy with group think and "consensus".
