HN39;
Thanks very much for the information - much appreciated.
CONF iture,
From a pilot's p.o.v I think the theory that the reduction in indicated altitude as an initiating source for the immediate pull on the stick by the PF is reasonable in and of itself, however it does not account for the destabilization of the flight path and rapid loss of control that follows. As for the theory of two pilots slavishly following their flight directors to the exclusion of all the raw data being presented, we may posit what we wish but it is not possible to draw any conclusions either way.
