There was no UAS SOP, none. Every incident was a fresh abnormal, subject to the unquantifiable readiness of the AF crews to instantly interpret what was happening, and deal with no airspeeds, until the Controls Law changed, which it never did.

Straightforward does not mean simplistic, and STALL training should never have become an issue. STALL TRAINING? At the flight levels?

you have got to be kidding.

It was not UAS at the time, it did not have the familiarity it attained on this epic website.

ALTERNATE did not appear until the fourth screen, and the descriptions given here by professionals are not necessarilt the waynit was. Everything in the reort is an interpretation, subject to after the fact pause, and weighing this against that, including politics, and personalities.

The Pilots are quite naturally at the center, and it is exquisitely frustrating to see the slow and measured sculpture of a new urban myth.

NO ONE knows what the screens showed, and that is why the regulators now require CVVR format in future.

If there were usable honest cues on the panel, do you think they would have said nothing about the Attitude until GPWS?

These crew had a dozen seconds or so to get it right, up to the point the cueing got unsussable, imo.....
