The captain responded by abruptly pulling back on the control column, followed by increasing thrust to 75% power, instead of lowering the nose and applying full power, which was the proper stall-recovery technique.

Why would people rich enough to own this jet not hire a captain? Do yacht owners drive their own boat? I don't understand this weird mentality of flying around a bunch of friends because it's an airplane

all sorts of rich people fly small aircraft, pilot boats just smaller than motor yachts, and race fast cars - all at considerable personal risk. yolo my brother
Pilot is supposed to have ice in his veins the whole time even if they crash, so he can think of every possible thing to try. She OTOH started screeching immediately to the ATC guy, and kept screaming the whole time. WTF is the air traffic control guy going to do? And does screeching help the other pilot figure out how to get out of a dive?
