Can one achieve sufficient ND to escape the STALL in the first place?
Hi Lyman,
Page 90 of the final report shows the elevator at -30 degs (Max) and the stab trim at -13 degs (Max).
Why do you suppose maximum Nose Down Elevator & Stab Trim would not be available if the stick was held fully forward?
If that was not sufficient to lower the nose, then they could have selected idle power.
Neither of the above were attempted because they never diagnosed (believed?) they had stalled.
