It would be useful if your link worked and pointed to the full final report. That appears to be exactly the kind of of incident that should have resulted in the pilot having his instrument and type ratings revoked pending further training and assessment. From what little you’ve provided, the main issue appears to be the instrument approach, not a carrier landing.
The pilot should have been fully familiar with runaway pitch trim and the spool up time of the Spey and the effects of 7th stage at Mil.
Sadly, you’ve just given a somewhat random link to a fraction of the full facts.
