The Buffalo News: Who's Flying Your Airplane?

"Along the way, much remains untaught.

For years, many regionals — like Colgan Air, which operated Flight 3407 — left training for icing conditions largely to a 10-year-old, 30-minute, NASA-produced video.

That video focused in part on the rare phenomenon of plane tail icing. That's a problem, because a pilot's proper response to tail icing is exactly the wrong response to a wing stall.

The pilot of Continental Connection Flight 3407, Capt. Marvin Renslow, picked the wrong response."
