Without sufficient power, the autopilot trying to maintain altitude can drive the aircraft into a stall. It was finally at the onset of the prestall buffeting that the copilot started to try to recover, unfortunately while you can overpower an autopilot easily, overpowering a 15yo holding the other yoke is not as easy. The 15yo was trying to steer the aircraft the wrong way? The report I read theorized that the instructions that pilot was shouting was interpretted as to hold the wheel in a neutral position while the copilot was trying to roll the plane back level. |
