Big thanks DWB, well balanced post.
Was it configured heavy, I recall 447 was a tad over loaded on take off?
Also did you find out what max rate of decent you had when stalled?

Agreed. Test pilots of Airbus gently dance on edge of the flight envelope to ensure that the a/c can return quickly. Crudely departing with high energy is undesirable as the energy/time required to...

Coupling the stall warning to the IAS is clearly a problem. This cross dependency needs to be eliminated. If you lose/degrade IAS <60kts then you lose the stall warning! But when you lose IAS you...

Does anyone have a comment on the fact the PF (right seat) was found with lap belt undone and his audio channel sounding like he hit his mic on a wall? This correlates with the maxima of the...

Test Pilot

A few misguided comments about test pilot territory.
From what I have heard liner test pilots say when they test the edge of the envelope it is in a highly controlled and low energy way. The goal is...

QF72

Before you start attacking the dead pilots you need to do a bit more research here (http://www.atsb.gov.au/publications/investigation_reports/2008/aair/ao-2008-070.aspx). Are you aware that QF72 was...

Well maybe you hit the nail on the head. That is about the only thing they all focussed on. Forget speed, stall, attitude, THS and just focus on the roll. Amazing that they had such roll control once...

Is the english "stall" widely used in French aviation training or is the native "décrochage" used?
Is hearing...

Reasons to ignore stall warnings:

Indeed, a major puzzle why ignore the stall warnings for 3 or 4 minutes? In the entire transcript of the incident not once was "stall" or "décrochage" ever mentioned by any of the 3 pilots.
Reasons...

Yes. I agree that PF was confused at best. What concerned me was that he could have hit his head as stated in the BEA report, which has never commented on in this forum (unless I missed it). ...
