Should Airlines Be Training Flight Attendants To Land A Plane?

Here’s a scenario: Both pilots are incapacitated. You make an announcement looking for any qualified pilots among the passengers but nobody came forward. There is no one to land the plane. What do you do?



If you think this could never happen, remember Helios Airways Flight 522.
So, should airlines be training flight attendants to land a plane in cases like this?
Perhaps provide us with a checklist near the pilot seats on how to establish radio communication with the ground using emergency frequencies and then they will tell us what to do.
