It is going to be very interesting to see the final results from flight data box's .... that is a damming enlightenment , the peoples doing the driving don't know how to fly the things.

Ooophs ..

2. Pilot flying’s decision to disconnect the autopilot shortly after the first
master warning increased the pilot flying’s subsequent workload and
reduced his capacity to assess and cope with the emergency situation.

8. Captain A’s performance during the occurrence was consistent with his
performance weaknesses noted during his training, including his
continued difficulties in handling emergency and/or abnormal
situations, including engine flame out at take off and single engine
operations. However, TransAsia Airways did not effectively address
the evident and imminent flight safety risk that Captain A presented.

Mind you , recall the Asia Silk Air 737 crash were the pilots were arguing who going to land or something along those lines, airport footage showed regular traffic landing looking directly out on the runway and one was able to define it was a Boeing or Airbus ... they compared the same position from the same camera and all it was, a white blur of something racing along the runway .... obviously the 737 BUT !
