You are putting it kindly. 'Failed to complete adequate stall recovery techniques' is more on the mark. Pushing thrust levers forward is not nearly enough. It is one of the first things you learn in flying- the most basic manoeuvre. Retracting flap in a stall situation is another howler. It reeks of inexperience, in both seats. The Colgan LHS should not have been there.
There is this thought you can get your flying licence and the next thing is get in the LHS as soon as possible. Hearing about 747 Captains at 23 just makes me squirm I'm afraid. Anyone flying even a 737 LHS with less than several thousand hours is a potential liability in a potentially dangerous situation where it can be seen they don't necessarily recognise the danger developing.
Yup, spot on.
The young button-pushers of today will not like to hear this, of course, however the fundamental fact remains....long experience normally pays large dividends that no amount of automatics (whether working working properly, or not) can counter.
