> The fly-by-wire system malfunctioned and the pilots got confused. The Wikipedia summary of the investigation report sounds quite a bit different. It says there was an intermittent malfunction that could be cleared by following a procedure, which was done three times during the flight, with no impact on flight safety (AIUI). The fourth time, instead of following procedure, the pilot toggled the flight computer's circuit breaker, which he is not allowed to do in flight, which reset the flight computer completely, disabling various automated systems that they would now have to re-start, which they did not do. Then the plane entered a stall and due to communication issues pilot and co-pilot gave contradictory control inputs which resulted in no control input to the plane.
