The FAA, with impeccable timing, has come out with their new rules from the Colgan Air accident.

Link : UPDATE 1-U.S. airline pilots to need more flight time to qualify | Reuters

and a fair use quote:
"The NTSB notes that human factors concerns associated with low airspeed do not require more than 6 years of study for a solution to be implemented," the NTSB said in a 2010 report on the Colgan accident.

Kinda makes one wonder if the NTSB may have an agenda here as well.
