This kills me:
"Renslow had failed flight checks in the aircraft five times before he passed."
From what I read before, he failed his initial and upgrade. The other 3 were pre121. While still a lot of failures, he passed 6 PC's prior to the accident.
"He also reportedly did not know the emergency procedures to prevent the aircraft from stalling"
Yep. They got us now. Never once do we pilots ever get any stall training. Lets freak out the public more and tell them that regional pilots are as about experienced in flying as a waiter or school teacher. Opps, b!tch beat me to it..........
"We all know that low pay attracts less-experienced workers, from table servers to schoolteachers."
