A couple months ago pilots flew a plane into the ground in Russia because of faulty data readings and they had full manual control of the aircraft. In Buffalo the pilots held the stick back when the commuter aircraft stalled due to icing. I think we need better standards for pilots world wide and far better "incident" training. As PoP stated, they need more actual seat of the pants flying. Make them fly a J3 or something every 6 months.
