No, but,
It may put an end to "Colgan Air" type buffooneries.
Captain allows aircraft to stall, pulls full back yoke in respose. The female "Nimrod" FO screams and raises the flaps!
How are we doing so far here? It was all over at 2000 feet. No attempt to recover, full aft yoke all the way down. Killed 22 people, (one on the ground).
At least Delta did not hurt anyone, let alone kill anyone!
Big difference between landing on the wrong runway..err taxiway and not being capable of recognizing or even recovering from a simple stall!
Delta passengers walk off on a jetbridge, Colgan passingers are carried off in body bags.
Big difference!
