What is this? The crash happened at 00:42Z (03:42L). (Edited: this can only mean 01:40 mins into the CVR recording).

Also, the notion that the pilot accidentally held the trim button down to such an extreme degree is something i find very very hard to believe. It is actually quite ridiculous. It is much more likely that, in a dark noisy 737 cockpit, the continuous and uncommanded motion of the trim wheel could have easily not be noticed,especially in rough air and considering that many crew wear ANC headsets to protect their hearing which do attenuate all cockpit noises to varying degrees.
