My mistake on the 2500’ RA, got that note from an Avionics guy but I can not confirm it any more!

Always willing to admit when I’m wrong, even after 20 years on this bird. Either way the NTSB will sort it out and produce a report.

Your very confident in your ignorance, or just another troll.

There maybe more than one configuration, the 76s I fly GA is armed with flaps out of up or Glide Slope intercept.

What are the possibilities of an unsecured crewmember falling into the machinery during MOGRT.

This is the worst one of these hairbrained theories I’ve read yet.

Maybe, but I've had an engineer end up in the bag bin.

I still do some instructing here and there. Even my guys that haven’t gotten their Private yet know that “nose angle”(maybe more properly referred to as pitch attitude?) has absolutely nothing to do with stalling the airplane, nor does it have anything to do with recovering from a stall. Stalls are based on angle of attack, which has nothing to do with the relationship of the longitudinal axis of the airplane and the horizon and everything to do with the relationship of flight path of the airplane compared to the “chord line.” There is definitely much more involved, but since you apparently know nothing about aviation other than the wings make it fly, that is as simple as I can make it. I have been quiet as long as I can, but man you really sound like a MO RON. Sorry, but go away.

I've given F4E a 3 day vacation so higher level discussion can occur.
