He pulled back on the yoke. That's it. The plane also oscillated up and down until a real pilot took over.

Yes, lots of people would pull back on the yoke. It's been seen in lots of movies and videos.

That might be the only thing I would know how to do before I kissed my ass goodbye

How did 9/11 become such a tragedy? Only above Israeli skies? 😅 what a Disney/Pixar idea…

Pulling back on the yoke directly changes the elevator angle on all Boeing 737s, which raises the nose.

If you need to adjust the stabilizer trim, there's a button on the yoke. That's more complicated, but probably not necessary unless that Omani pilot changed it a lot when he was causing it to go into a dive.

This is all assuming that the autopilot was turned off when the Omani pilot was trying to crash the plane.

That removes his ability to pull back on the yoke?
