Reading the letter pasted by Halfnut above my understanding is:
1. ) The Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System (MCAS) is a system that is distinct from the Speed Trim System (STS) and not merely an alternate name for the STS.
2.) The 737 MAX has a system whcih makes significant adjustments to the flight control system, whcih change the way the airplane flies, and Boeing provided no information on this system in operating manuals or related literature (at least to flight operations departments) .
Is this incorrect or inaccurate?
