Grrr Not THIS again!!!

Dozy:
It also puts a dent in the "other pilot would see the inappropriate control deflection and take over", because in that case the F/O did not. The Stony Point NWA B727 was at FL 248 when exactly the same thing happened.
You keep on saying that, and I keep on countering that your premise is based on false logic. One or two cases proves nothing at all. One could (I do) also speculate that, if one had a data base of, say, 100 such incidents, equally distributed between SS and yoke aircraft, it might be more appropriate to draw the conclusion that you do IF there was no difference in the associated statistics. I.E., if we're going to make guesses on this issue, I would guess that in 100 cases of LOC-to-stall, MORE pilots would notice the inappropriate input when it was a yoke. But....I have no more proof for that than you do for your opposite conclusion.

True, I can't fly, but I can think!
