ANACM analysed that the frequent target altitude changes including the display of 0 were inadvertent inputs while the heading bug was intended to be operated. The target altitude of 3000 feet, selected repeatedly, had no operational justification, the go-around altitude was 8000 feet.
I wonder how these guys even managed to board the aircraft without killing themselves in the process.

They should never have been anywhere near the controls of a aircraft.
