The small aileron “tabs” were not doing a great job in crosswind ability. In the CRJ you can not hear any engines from the cockpit, making for an odd audio sensation. Landing was wild, leading to the aircraft’s big wings striking the ground at times in the crosswinds approaching 35 knots. There was no inherent stability.

Proper angle of attack management also maintains safety during slow flight, crosswind landings, and when encountering wake turbulence. Once the aircraft is stabilized in its dive, your pitch attitude is true -45. Today’s cockpits are equipped with advanced AOA indicators that can let you know when a stall may occur.
