Pilots SHOULD be trained to deal with situations like this - getting trained in simulators replicating the conditions that caused previous accidents.

But, that's theoretical. I'm hearing pilots get massively underpaid for the responsibility they have, unless they gain an x amount of flight hours and years of experience so they can do big intercontinental flights (= more flight hours, = more income). It's up to the industry to fix this problem, also to fix their own shortage of pilots. Pay pilots a decent wage when they're starting out on their career. Give them the opportunities to gain the flight hours.
