Plane down in BUF

[Lear70]

Regardless of the speeds they were using, when they brought the props up, without the throttles, they may have just as well put out a drag chute. There was absolutely NO attempt to add power until it was too late.

And dropped the gear just seconds prior to bringing the props up, too...

Totally agree.

Also agree with Fluff that if the Captain had responded correctly, we wouldn't be having this conversation. Total lack of Situational Awareness combined with bad response and it killed them. And several dozen other people...

Sad.
