There was procedure for approach to stall. None was followed.
What, to gun it and pull up? Ha!
No, not at high altitude, there wasn't. Stall training, as I read it, was only for low-altitude problems such as wind-shear. This was one of the shockers

Personally, I am more than little amused by all the exaltations about airline pilots needing full stall recovery training. Ones pleading for it might be correct but let it remain type specific, please.
Yikes! OK, type-specific: I will never,
ever, fly in a 'Bus again until I am sure that everybody holding my life in their hands is properly trained for such rare and unusual attitudes. Passengers do not expect to gamble on such things. In fact, I'm sure there are 228 souls who would emphatically disagree.
