The airplane wasnt uncontrollable at this point, and was flying fairly stable at altitude, so the decision was made to continue on their route, burn more fuel, and divert to LAX. At around 24,000 feet, the crew got the aircraft largely under control. Only then could investigators begin to figure out what had gone wrong.
