That reasoning doesn't make sense, said Roger Cox, a retired investigator with the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board and a former airline pilot. Flight crews have a right to be concerned that details about the new system weren't included in manuals and the short training courses they were required to take before flying the upgraded 737, Cox said."I would be pretty pissed" about not being told, he said. "This is important systems information that pilots should know about."
A more forthright and succinct statement is that a non-industry captured regulator would now ground the aircraft, sort the anomaly and let all pilots completed mandated differences training.
