Memory items are there for after takeoff and climb phase. However the wording used is "If the safe conduct othe flight is affected".For cruise you are expected to level off and follow the unreliable airspeed procedure for trouble shooting. Boeing is not much different. It mentions crew should be aware of appx.pitch attitude for each maneuvre and then asks you consult the table. The problem is you are dealing with pilots who do not monitor anything,not even speed in visual approach like the experienced pilots of the Asiana accidents. Then what can you expect at night, in turbulence with confusing airspeeds.It appears that these pilots were really not trained or explained the complications of this perticulare problem and they did not remember the memory items correctly. They would not have done anything better even in a Boeing or any aircraft.
