stick pusher is immediately obvious, and doesn’t move the stabilizer to the point where elevators may not have authority to override the nose down force...stick pusher easily overridden by a tug on the control column rendering the aircraft totally controllable at all times, one possible factor in these two accidents could possibly be the “what the hell is going on and why do I keep having to fight nose down tendencies”, with a stick pusher there ain’t no doubt what happened
