Pugh said:They said the F/O was slumped over the yoke. Would that cause enough of a force to push it forward and make it go into CWS mode?
I don't know, I don't even know if hitting the trim will knock the autopilot off in a 737-300, it does kick the autopilot off in the Falcon 20. Getting the nose down should be the 1st priority in an emergency descent is something a Falcon instructor told me during training and it seems like it makes sense, anyway you can hit the trim with one hand and reach for the mask with the other at the same time.
