M, thanks, an interesting report by NASA.

I will trade you this one.

The relevance to this thread is that pilots view situations according to experience and the role they have in the flight deck (discussion p31).
Captains focus on the the severity of the problem - flight task. Monitoring pilots prioritise judging if and when a response - call out, is required.

If this is a general conclusion then the argument for cross monitoring and FO intervention is weak because there is little shared awareness of a developing problem.
Thus in the CRJ accident, the Capt continues with the task of flying - but based on an erroneous attitude display; the monitoring pilot calls 'pitch attitude' but may not understand the nature of the problem. The result is that neither pilot has an overall grasp of the situation, and with a reluctance to change the original understanding and action, become committed, each in their respective task.
