As an aside, is it about time that we started taking mental illness amongst flight crew a bit more seriously. I was looking at my income insurance and loss of licence protection, both policies explicity rule out payments due to not being able to work after being diognosed with a mental disorder. The result of that may be for pilots who shouldn't be at work continuing to turn up.

'Are Out' maybe if there was someone responsible they just set 100' in the Altitude windon pushed EXP descent and sat back and watched it all unfold? Even if you wanted to fly the thing into the ground the overspeed protections would restrict how you could do this, unless of course you turned some things off to gain control without protections. This profile though seems to have been well controlled and stable all the way to the ground.
