This is the preliminary report from the Norwegian CAA. The incident took place on approach to Oslo (OSL/ENGM) on Jan 22.. .. .<a href="http://www.aaib-n.org/rapporter%202002/Preliminary%20report%20TF-FIO%20eng.htm" target="_blank">http://www.aaib-n.org/rapporter%202002/Preliminary%20report%20TF-FIO%20eng.htm</a>

50 degr pitch down, pulling 3,6 G to level off at 300 ft in a 757 is quite something ! they were all extremely lucky that day...

If that had been an Airbus the 'I told ya so' brigade would be in full swing now.. .. .Just goes to show how quickly it can all get away from you when it starts going.
