Salute!
The ratchet effect is worthy of discussion and consideration by Big B and those here.
The so-called “reset” does not appear to move the stab back to last manually commanded angle, best I can tell from the limited explanations from B and some here, plus looking at the available data.
So I beep trim and Hal stops for 5 seconds, but does not move stab back to previous angle, right? Hence, we see the ratchet.
This implementation of this flight control feature (MCAS) seems more and more like a kludge to get around/satisfy some certification requirements. And it makes me mad. And scared.
Gums sends....
