Question remains if the new policy will also help prevent the re-occurence of Armavia crash eventhough the resemblance to GulfAir still scares me. Or this one:
Crossair Flight 498 - Wiki
* The commander remained unilaterally firm in perceptions which suggested a left turn direction to him.
* When interpreting the attitude display instruments under stress, the commander resorted to a reaction pattern (heuristics) which he had learned earlier.
* The commander was not systematically acquainted by Crossair with the specific features of western systems and cockpit procedures.
