We keep going round and round in this thread but I cannot agree that this could have been prevented by this crew who were dealing with a threat they were ill equipped to handle. When it happened they did not know the unreliable air speed procedure, they did not know stall recognition and recovery procedure at high altitude and there was no way they were going to discover by accident. UAR procedure is conducted with attitude and power and this crew was neither hearing any warnings nor looking at PFD. Their actions were as if they were trying to recover blind folded. Why they were so incompetent is another matter. Their airline training procedure for this situation, their performance assessment during that and recurrent training will have something to say.
