Find the differences to the AIRPROX incident to A340 TC-JDN on 2 october 2000:
The turkish pilots responded slightly earlier to the zoom climb. (Turkish 18s, AF 90s).

Isn't it strange that pilots immediately respond to an overspeed warning, but fail to notice a zoom climb that (if it hadn't been protected) would have brought the airplane close to stalling?

P.S. Another notable difference is a change in the control law, which now leaves high AoA protection mode with SS in neutral during 0.5 seconds when the AoA is below AlphaProt.
