Appears correct to me. Agreed.

Troll? That is a stretch.... For three years on, people have been spinning the accident into ever fanciful and flimsy conclusions of PE, whilst defending and lauding the airframe as perfection personified.....
If you're a troll, you and I aren't the only ones. I personally need the airplane to be safe and controllable. It isn't my aim to find the airframe guilty, and I hope and assume you are motivated in like manner. I do want to completely understand how the PF became "startled" and lost awareness, and I'll admit that his actions ended in disaster. PE answers some, if not most, questions, but IMHO, it doesn't answer all the questions. In that light, I appreciate your continual "nit picking".

You take the freaking cake. Presumption piled on assumption...
I hope I'm not waxing scholarly on anything. (Clandestino will be quick to point out the correctness of this statement). I do consider you to have actually waxed scholarly on many things. Thank You for doing so. I've learned a lot from you and many others on this forum.
