AirAsia Flight 8501: Co-Pilot Was Flying Plane at Time of Crash, Officials Say - ABC News
Siswosuwarno said the plane was struggling to recover as stall warnings sounded until the end of the recording.
Audible stall warning in Airbus (or stick shaker in Boeing) is designed to inform pilots that stall condition is approaching, but tracking the fate of an Air France flight 447 we can observe that stall warning appeared many times even when aircraft have already been stalled.

So imagine, you are simply falling with terminal velocity without any lift force on the wings and airplane is saying "watch out, you will stall in a moment"
Isn't that confusing?
