I'm not sure that it will do any good for amateur surmising over this incident. Incidentally, the link given at the top of the thread seems to be far more comprehensive (and is far more recent) than MJ's link.
One thing IS sure though, that the somatogravic illusions, both in up and down pitch with the large power and speed changes, would have added significantly to the extreme confusion experienced by the crew.
Just glad I wasn't there!
