Long wing twisting

Well what JJ was asking was not the groups opinion
on what he did...rather was this a possible scenario
for the Ivans/Engen accident.

An interesting theory...how would the spoilers being
deployed have helped/hindered this condition? Interestingly
in both these Nimbus crashes, spoilers and/or flaps
were deployed to help recover...contrary to the POH.
Although no one will really know what happened in
the case of the Minden accident. My guess is for a
brief few moments...the two pilots may have thought
the other had the stick.
