you can't just say that and not tell me how he put his nose up (the exact opposite of what you are supposed to do in a stall warning) and even overrode the automatic stick-pusher, leaving the poor plane to gyrate like this https://youtu.be/lxywEE1kK6I?t=120

(and confusing the poor airport ATC who didn't understand where the plane went)

Really interesting comment on that video which might give some explanation:

The pilots of Colgan Air had to attend a "tail-stall" course about a month prior to the accident. As a professional pilot I know that if I found myself in a stall less than a month after training about it, the first thing that comes to mind is a "tail stall" and the recovery procedure is counter-intuitive (pitch up, not down). A tail stall has very subtle differences from that of a regular and are hard to distinguish which are which.

I have don’t know how accurate it is, but it’s a solid reminder how complex some seemingly obvious things to non experts are. https://aircrafticing.grc.nasa.gov/1_3_4_3.html

Engineers can make all the parts safe except for the nut behind the wheel.

(Having a copilot helps.)

As of yet the human is the problem engineers are currently working to remove from the equation

I hope what they want is to reduce the likelihood of human error causing catastrophic failure. Not necessarily to take humans out of the loop altogether.

The former may require the latter.

Or his wife told hom she's divorcing him that morning and he flies you into a mountain.

Flying is terrifying.
