Last 10 radio contacts. Continental Connection flight 3407 co-pilot Rebecca Shaw, can be heard in this recorded Buffalo tower radio taffic talking with approach during 10 radio calls with flight 3407 prior to the flight dissappearing from the radio and the radar. Listening to this recording you hear that Shaw was very composed and did not give any indication of trouble aboard the flight as she spoke and took direction from the air-traffic controllers guiding her plane and others to Buffalo airport. After the tenth call you can hear controllers getting worried that flight 3407 is no longer answering. Further discussion can be heard about other aircraft taking on ice.

Too much icing is what caused the imminent stall and the crash.If the plane is about to go into a stall and you do not have the height necessary to regain control it matters nothing at all. The plane was on approach to land too so was not at a high altitude when this all took place. They refuse to talk about the buildup of ice despite the flight crew bringing up an extraordinary amount of icing on the plane in the transcript. I hope the NTSB and this Continental Airlines rot in hell.
He shouldna pulled up on the stick, because their attitude showed positive climb rate... although, he mighta been fighting the shaker off and by then it was too late, they were right upon stall speed when that happened. I think if they had another 1000 ft, he would have recovered. The NTSB animation showed that he was about to recover once they did the nose dive and ganed more airspeed
She had a really bad head cold, totally congested. She was running on very little sleep. They both had requested lower altitude to let her ears pop. Read the transcript.
It was a TAIL stall which is different than a conventional stall... For a tail stall a pilot would pull back as opposed to pushing forward on the yoke. The icing is what killed them.
Im not a pilot... yet (14 year old with 11 hours under my belt) but a tail stall? apparently the stick shaker was on for a long time and the pilot did pull up (forcing against the nose pusher) about 31 degrees, which caused a greater stall ? Im realy not sure

Actually, fucktard the pilot, who crashed the plane, was a man. She was the copilot and was not flying the plane at the time.
