The altitude was barely above select cruise, @ 35.3k. @ 2:10:18. So my question might be: only 35,300? Why is this a/c climbing so sluggish? I don't dispute the Pitch picture, but it didn't match with Alt, necessarily, after ten seconds of climbing. The video catch does not represent the dynamic nature of the trends?

It was ".....annonce..................." " ........de vitesse......." Not ".....annonce de................". "...........vitesse....". Four seconds between annonce and de. Annonce and de are separated, not together.

PF was inputting ND three times at 2:10:18, and airspeed shows 70 knots, and we don't know if the displays were consonant with DFDR. A/S is duff, else he Stalls here...... He is comfortable with this Pitch, yes? What does that say? If it is what he sees, after all.....


I will ask my French expert re: " annonce". Besides, STALLWARN is a result of speed plus AoA, could he not mean "Stall 'vitesse' ? Not a reference to AirSpeed, but a ref to StallSpeed. Did he have the StallWarn bug present on his tape? Why is speed tape missing from video snatch? I believe his comment refers to a bogus StallWarn.

Your comments are most appreciated, it is quiet on my "side".
