Whilst GA will find it harder to create a training program to prevent a repeat of “pushing down”, the airlines will need to design a program to really mitigate this threat.

The data from this tragic event needs to part of the UPRT simulator program and certainty part of any command training and recurrence training yearly.

Prospective employers minds will clearly be concentrated by this tragic event, and improve the Due Diligence process before hiring new pilots.
I would suggest that the process starts from day 1 of flying, even if this is for PPL issue, prior to any thoughts of professional flying.
