If you say "low airspeed" into the ear of a sleeping NG pilot, he'll yell "set max thrust"
Which everybody who has ever read "stick and rudder" or any other book on flight mechanics knows will have two effects: on climb rate and on noise level. For more speed you have to give a nose down input on the elevator...
The Asiana pilots should have pushed the nose forward! Why didn't we see that?

(Haven't we done this before?)
