    Can you trust your ADIRU? Food for thought:

    A lot of holes in this video. I’m not a 777 guy, but the crew did not respond properly. A/P and A/T should have been disconnected immediately and the aircraft hand flown. It stated the A/P was re-engaged and the aircraft turned right and descended. The A/P follows the flight director, so what was the flight director set up to do at that time?

    What I don't understand is that it said that after the autopilot was disengaged, the plane continued to climb and initially wouldn't resist the pilot's attempts to lower the nose. To me, that doesn't make sense.
