Hi NeoFit, nice to see you.

Take a closer look at your excellent review of DFDR determined data. Those data cannot be assumed to have been displayed!

Especially not AoA....

Let me introduce something from what is on another thread. Having to do with displays, let's look at what the pilots were experiencing in the cockpit on the way down. The PITCH was consistently around 16 degrees, the a/c was falling at about 1g, and the airstream is assumed to have been LOUD.

Cover the panel with a tarp, and put hoods on the pilots. No cues, save kinesthetic. The pilot, standing, is on his feet on a 1g floor at an angle of 16 degrees, quite uphill. The pilots, both seated, sense the angle of the a/c in their back and buttocks, also 16 degrees uphill. This continues for two minutes.

And none of these experienced airmen are aware of the deck angle? Of course they knew their Pitch was unacceptably high. No Comment, at all? They ignored it?

To believe the BEA report is to believe in the Mad Hatter, and Rumplestiltzkin

And they had VSI to corroborate their kinesthetics! And Instruments! But, dumbfounded, they descended to their death, unaware of their condition?

nonsense.
