Staggering incompetence by both pilots. That they didn't even attempt a stall recovery is baffling. Their inappropriate actions turned that aircraft into a plummeting stone.

[txrmnp]

Pilot: *pulls up during a stall instead of pushing down*
Me: *in SpongeBob SquarePants background character voice* How many times do we have to teach you this lesson old man!?

[oliverclark]

Please stick with me on this one. I had finished using a hosepipe and had held the pressure in at the nozzle end. I switched off the tap and asked my wife to release the pressure at the nozzle end before I disconnected the hose from the tap. Otherwise I would be drenched by the water escaping under pressure. She said she had done it so I disconnected and was drenched by water under pressure. It wasn’t her means of a joke, she genuinely thought she had released the pressure. When I asked about whether water came out when she did it she said no. Moral of the story is that it’s dangerous when you don’t intuitively understand the physic’s of what you are doing. Absolutely applies when flying an aircraft.

I think one big difference between this and Air France 447 is that these pilots managed to crash the plane much faster. When in a climb from FL 360 to FL 390 an overspeed alarm sounds and the throttle hasn't moved, even a Wheel of Fortune contestant should be able to figure out not to drop the throttle to idle.

"I'm just gonna keep pulling the nose up because the known-to-be-defective overspeed warning is sounding & even though both engines have lost power AND we are actively in a stall. What could POSSIBLY go wrong?"

[Hughes]

I have to say that learning to fly is a bit like learning to drive - straight and mostly level. After my qualification I undertook an emergency manouvre course in a Pitts. I learnt how to recover from a fully developed spin and more importantly how not to get into a spin. BEST money I ever spent and something I didn't get in flight training.

[eucliduschaumeau]

They just stopped even trying to fly the plane. They gave up and let it crash.

[scofab]

The problem was two loose nuts behind the yokes. Reminiscent of Air France... RIP.
Thanks again and regards as always.

"The stickshaker pushes the nose down. However, the Captain counters it and pulls the nose back up".

OK, so the captain's an idiot, but will be fully qualified to fly for Air France.

[paulcooper]

Super incompetence by the Captain not being able to recover from a stall at 38, 000 ft and fixating on an over speed while climbing.

[enzymatic]

Remember folks.. its a lot more favorable to be flying too fast and potentially overspeeding as opposed to flying too slow and potentially stalling.

[DrMatey]

Dang! What a scary proposition having your engines flaming out at a pretty high altitude!

[dlkline]

How to make maximum mistakes in minimum time. I'm not a pilot but logic dictates that if the engines are performing normally at cruise power and the aircraft is flying level, you don't need to be concerned about an airspeed indication anomaly. A truly heart wrenching outcome.

[CarlosOrtiz-gd]

They forgot to..."Aviate !!!! ". Really sad...

[senilyDeluxe]

Another instance where the plane was telling the pilots it was going too fast and too slow at the same time and the pilots went with the "too fast" alarm even though they were climbing and/or the throttles were at idle.
Sure, this is an Armchair Pilot here with ~100 hours of experience in MS Flight Simulator 5 (on a 486, yes, 25 years ago), but...

C'mon people, that violates the laws of physics! Going too fast while in a climb with no throttles!

[r.o.]

me get this straight. the captain couldn't recover from a stall at 38K feet? did she do her training at colgan air?

[bobmillerick]

Or, don't put stupid pilots in the cockpit. Just an idea.

[MorganBrown]

4300 hours in what? Shameful accident

[kevinheard]

I'm second ... and very satisfied with this channel....great job!

[HXCFCUNME]

Fascinating learning about these lesser known crashes. Absolutely appalling by the pilots, it's insane how people trained & experienced through so many flights can make such catastrophic mistakes so quickly & certainly.
