You put a catastrophic scenarios where there is none.

Are you absolutely sure? From the report: 'Airbus performed a simulation of the last 300 feet of the accident flight, which indicated that the airplane was performing as designed and was in alpha-protection mode from 150 feet to touchdown.'



Honestly answer us please CONFiture, what result do you expect in a 737 with an average pilot:
-Rate of descent 1200 fpm, double the normal.
-SpeedVLS -17, that's more or less Vapp-17 in Boeing terms, leagues below the safe speed, probably approaching stall
-At or near stick shaker
-150'
-no power

Recover.
How??
