Dont want to mess this Rostov -on -Don thing with this thread except to say we are being asked to believe they flew a perfectly serviceable aircraft into the ground while one of them held the stab trim for 12 secs. Yeah right, like these guys do that all the time!!

To get back to the accident at hand, what would have happened to this LA Max if this problem had occurred immediately after take off or like the Rostov accident, on a go around? I suspect they wouldn't have had time to execute a recovery let alone establish they were experiencing air data issues from an AoA sensor. It would look awfully similar to RoD. If I was an airline with orders for MAX right now, I'd be a little apprehensive.
