Not my intention at all.

Even if my comment implies that there might be pilot error, pilot error doesn't mean pilot blame.

In this case, I'm very much of the opinion that the blame either belongs with the official Boeing training program, which didn't correctly train any 737 pilots to correctly handle this scenario.

Or the blame belongs to the design specification that relied on the assumption pilots would be able to correctly handle this scenario with out even testing that assumption. Or potentially both.

Even if say 10% of pilots could fluke into handling this scenario without the correct training, doesn't mean the other 90% are to blame for not flukking into a correct solution.
