Ask any first year Aero student this question:
"You're at a stable 35k cruise, then pull full nose up and leave it there, what will happen?"
They'll respond along the line of "you'll climb - trading airspeed for altitude".
And if you keep the stick full back, what then?
"Why would you do that, you'll stall!"
What I can't understand (and can't forgive) is why Bonin didn't know that basic fact...
You make conclusions with insufficient evidence, and do not allow for facts established!
At loss of Autopilot, along with cavalry charge and Master Caution, there was.....STALL STALL....
May I then ask your question of the aircraft: "It should never have gotten 'that far' "
The pilot had nothing to do with the initial warning, save perhaps his initial input of NU.
If you fly this aircraft, and have an explanation for "mayonnaise stirring", enlighten us as to the link between this first Stall warning and the aircraft's attitude?
