No need.....the flashing master caution light and the kick in the pedals are clue enough! The horn on a Squirrel is there because the hydraulic accumulator gives you a few seconds to sort your life out.
The RFM advice for the 109 advises a slow reduction to 90kts and not using any AOB greater than 25*. It also warns against flight regimes needing high control inputs.....
If this is what happened here, it just wasn’t the pilot’s day. At least they all escaped major injury, or worse.
