Would his conversion training have had the benefit of what came to light after the LionAir accident, or, would that training course have been before the LionAir accident?
That was kind of where I was headed. But, the Max is now in Comet territory I'm afraid. Waiting another 6 months until another augers in should not be an option - again making no assumptions as to cause.
