But the stall warning came back precisely when finally the left seater was pushing the nose down ...
I doubt anyone envisaged a pilot pulling up so far into a stall that the airspeeds would make the SW system unreliable.
The stall warning system behaved as by design but not as by regulation ...
The only way in which I can fault the design of the aircraft in this accident is that it didn't force the nose down in response to the repeated attempts by the co-pilot to pull up.
