There are only 2 ways it could be noticed by the crew.... feeling the impact or error/warning lights on this cockpit. Based on news reports there weren’t either of those so it’s not surprising that the pilots didn’t realize they hit the wall.

Had the passensgers said they felt an impact I think it would be very negligent of the pilots.

I think AI has great pilots... AI Express pilots though aren’t that great or experienced.
