Doze....

"Lyman, all values are recalculated in real time - don't think of it as a home computer where tasks are prioritised differently and the machine will slow down as it has to process more. These computers are designed to process all the streams of information without missing a beat."

Yes, I know, it was a bit of a trick question, but not meant in any sinister way. What was the calculated AoA for STALLWARN at the instant of STALLSTALL? Via that data, you might guess what I am after.....

"In answer to your question, the STALLSTALL at 02:10:10 was "G" induced and was silenced almost as quickly as it appeared. The *next* STALLSTALL was the real deal, however - and stayed on until the aircraft was well outside the designed operating envelope."

Yes, but to acquire "G" what needs to happen? What silenced the WARN? G is a symptom.....

"An updraft may mess with the AoA, but crucially the flight path does not indicate a climb of this nature, and nor does the DFDR data. This was a commanded climb."

Yes, a commanded climb, no argument. Any other possibilities? Assistances?

The STALLWARN happened after loss of Autopilot, and the machine will not WARN in Normal Law, and we know (?) the aircraft was in ALTERNATE LAW, is it possible the a/c degraded merely (only) to acommodate the WARNING?
