The training I went through was called Upset Recovery training (URT) or how to handle an upset stomach after consuming crew catering. Bring it on, it sounds fun!
Oh that. Yeah that came about because of RJ shenanigans and the puppy-mill-to-RJ fast track pipeline.

I'm looking forward to it, does sound fun.

That is awesome. I’d heard that but seeing the photos makes it real. David Lee Roth became an EMT in New York. Apparently most of his patients never knew who he was because he never volunteered it unless they recognized him.

Space Shuttle thread is also excellent. There’s a good message there. Humility goes a long way. In the end, as was said before, it’s all about how you cooperate that day on that flight. Crew concept, baby.

I've done the CBT portion and yes Colgan Dash 400 was mentioned as well as Air France and the Russian 737. They also showed a study with typed and active 737 pilot volunteers in the SIM and when faced with unexpected full upsets an eye opening approx 70% applied incorrect recovery procedures. They also highlighted the old PTS standards of minimum altitude loss requirement and muscle memory that came with the old way of training.

One of the dumbest things ever.

True. But it was Colgan and the passenger's families that made it a political issue that became a mandated Federal Law.

Theory was that systems would prevent a full stall, so the idea was to recover from an approaching stall.

Pulling the yoke into your navel was never going to work out though.
