Well I didn't actually specify airline ops (although obviously this does indeed happen). My point is that all pilots can hopefully read, learn & appreciate the facts from accidents that result from a stall on approach. Yes most are GA but a pilot / passenger death within GA (which often includes fare paying pax) is just as devastating to families as it would have been on an airliner. Imagining or believing that a stall on approach cannot / does not happen on an airliner is dangerous thinking!! As I intimated: lessons can hopefully be learnt [by all] - provided they are publicized / discussed.
