And the flap would attempt to lower the nose, the slat lower the stall speed and the reduction in thrust to lower the nose.
And yes I'm serious, pushing forward should lower the nose! Past the aft limit, at rotation they'd have needed to push forward.
It should unless there was damage to the airplane that prevented the controls from functioning normally. Where do you suppose a 25,000 pound MRAP would be going if it broke loose? Why do you suppose the crew of this flight apparently couldn't get the nose down?
I do not believe in any aircraft the stall procedure is not a memory item. Utter crap.
Your choice to believe what you wish. Perhaps it is a training item and not a QRH item?
