Yeah, sure, the recent cases of deliberate, relentless pull ups have really been something, and yeah, when your tail section or nose or is gone or the control system is FUBAR'd indeed the wings could exceed critical AOA's and cease the proper production of lift in any number of crash modes.
But even if it's not the primary cause we have to make a big public declaration that the plane did or didn't stall. Yes, even Les Abend took a peek at some tracking data and said that it looked as though an aerodynamic stall had occurred here.
One reason we like stalls so much is that it's insider secret code language. You know, my car stalled the other day, and it is indeed a sticky wicket if airliner engines shut down too! Student pilot to significant other- "We stalled the plane"...Significant other, "You turned off the engine, oh my, how dangerous, I'm sure you instantly fell out of the sky...I'm sure glad you got it started again".
So, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall, stall.....
There!
Now, let's wait for a preliminary reports of CVR/FDR data, explosive or weapon evidence, maintenance stuff, if the rumor that the copilot's wife said that the copilot felt the plane had issues. Stalls are not the cause of that many accidents (even though they are the cause of too many).
