Conclusions
Loss of control, through its severity, is a serious threat to aviation safety
There is no single cause why these accidents occur; there is no single solution
A variety of factors involved, human factors included
Authorities, training organisations, operators, manufacturers and human factors experts need to work together to solve this multifaceted issue.
