It's not just the Colgan incident; investigation into the Air France 447 crash concluded the crew did not recognize a stall, and may have been relying on an incorrect belief that the aircraft would not accept inputs that would produce a stall (which, for Airbus aircraft, is true except in alternate-law situations which occur when -- as with AF447 -- the flight systems notice a fault in data).
