Safety Board issued Safety Recommendation A-93-57, on June 3, 1993,

which asked the FAA to:

Require McDonnell Douglas and U.S. operators of the MD-11 to revise their MD-11 [FCOM]s (or equivalent documents) to include an accurate and complete description of the ground spoiler-induced nose pitch-up tendencies of the airplane and the specific pilot control techniques that may be required to counter those tendencies during landing.

- of course, McDonell never admitted design flaws
