Question

I haven't seen any discussion about the training that A/A instituted in the mid-90s for unusual attitude recovery where aggressive use of the rudder was recommended during an upset situation. The recent report that the FDR indicated that the rudder jerked five times during the flight's final seconds with two of the movements being full throw, stop to stop is quite suspicious. Any A/A guys out there want to clarify their training and it's possible implication in this terrible accident?
