What is sad is that two pilots couldn't figure out the reason why their corrective measures were not working (reacting to false data as equipment failure was misleading them) That's what's most scary as a passenger - you'd think that decision tree branch would be an automatic and immediate thing, to doubt the equipment (it sure is in medicine)
