Quite unlike Boeing as it would appear they hang onto 1960's technology very tightly.
On the 767 there was a deactivated CWS and it was 'very dangerous' according to some checkies I asked about it. No real explanation given.
Now it's deactivated on the 737? Hmmmm I presume the crews were informed? It worked very well in that manner.
