Rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic is not helpful. There was an utter lack of professionalism on the FD on approach.

Earlier on in this thread, Colgan Training was described as "To the Shaker, (not the Pusher), and the recovery was throttle and 'maintenance of altitude'." The allowable excursion in altitude was I believe 50 feet.

In this way, the training can be faulted for this Captain's insistence on back stick, even at onset of pusher. His 'pull' measured seventy pounds.
He was unaware of his pitch angle. Is there another way to see it.?
