The underlying issue here seems to me that regardless of whether the MCAS is a good system, it's not going to cause a problem unless there's a sensor failure. If this crash turns out to have the same cause as the first, then that means two bad sensors, on virtually new aircraft belonging to two different airlines. Wouldn't this be an abnormally high failure rate on a critical part?
