    This looks like another perfectly tragic lesson in the supreme power of startle factor and situational confusion. Not that we needed another lesson.
    Somatogravic illusion?

    Most likely not. It was too early in the descent/approach. Normally pilots don't keep their hands in the controls when in AP/AT until they are established in final approach.

    Last I checked you donÂ’t do extreme nose down inputs and extreme nose down attitudes except maybe if the plane is on fire or some other crazy rare circumstances.
    Like these ones?

    I think youÂ’re missing the elephant filled forest by looking at two levers.

    The initial bobble is from turbulence at 6200’. When the FO called for flaps 1, the captain accidentally hit the toga button. Toga didn’t engage until after flaps were set to 1, which then brought engine power to full, and started the initial pitch of 10 degrees nose up. The FO was startled, and shoved the nose forward... The CVR is startling, and baffling. The CA was pulling so hard against the FO that he sheared the pins on the stick and at that point had no control. They were IMC at the time. When they broke out into VMC, the FO said oh schit and started to pull. That was the round out you see. I won’t get into anything more until everything comes out. The records, the CVR, and what happened in the flight deck is truly shocking. They hit a negative 4 G dive initialy on the FOs push. All you hear is stuff hitting the ceiling and at one point a loud thud. They think the thud may have been the JS hitting the ceiling and maybe not wearing the shoulder harness. Like I said, I won’t get into anything more about the background of how it all happened. This is the accident in a nutshell. The facts that will come out are shocking.

    Hopefully the document referenced below goes some way to answering that question.

    Thanks for confirming. Not sure why the NTSB hasn't released this info. Or why it got leaked.

    Got this info from my airlines unofficial forum. Unofficial of course .

    And what might the rumors be? I have not seen any.
