I do not know why people still want to reopen this "stall" debate.
From the published reports and the briefings given by the BEA (i.e. by people who have listened to the CVR , just not read partial edited transcripts ) :
a) the 3 crew never realized they were in a stall.
b) we will never know what they really saw on the displays.
c) the audio and visual warnings were multiple and confusing.
How would some of you have reacted in similar circumstances ? Easy at home in front of a PC.
There are lots of lessons to be learned from AF447, one of them is interface between automated systems and humans. That is worth spending a lot of energy.
For the rest .. leave the guys alone I would say.
