The crew had loss of AP, a short Stall Warning, and an attitude “approaching” upset.
Also degraded to AL2B.
They entered a climb as the Auto Trim motored smoothly to full NU, where it stayed until impact.
Crew had no AoA indicator, neither did they have the optional Artificial Horizon, or BUSS.
They noted the climb, though their CRM lacked a concurrent discussion of recovery.
They tried to regain the “bird” in the display, and the F/O had desperately tried to move the FCM into “Direct Law”.
