You really are talking rubbish. Do you have even the slightest clue about how to fly an aircraft ?

Habsheim airshow, 1988, seasoned crew. Still fresh in my memory, seeing that unbelievable crash on the French evening news that same day; it would not have happened with any other aircraft make.
Too low, too slow, nose high, back side of the curve.
The result was inevitable in ANY aircraft including Boeing or even a Piper Cub.

Air New Zealand Airbus crash in the Mediterranean (Perpignan) 2008, seasoned German & NZ crew, including engineers, no one understood, until too late.
This one goes beyond pilot error into the realm of utter stupidity.
Functional test of alpha protection. The test instructions are very clear that the test MUST be conducted at 14000 ft and not less that 10000 feet AGL. Deliberately stall the aircraft to confirm that the alpha protection prevents the stall. Anyone who tries this at low level is way beyond stupid and certifiably insane. They did it at low level. DUH.
