question: what would be the result on the way of flying this 737 max ? a huge effort required to pull and push the yoke ?? I am curisous to know
Just guessing. 1. You're in a clean hold off autopilot and you let your speed decay, but not to stick shaker, while rolling into a bank and you pull to maintain altitude and either you have to let off the pull or actually push to keep the nose from rising more than you want.
2. You are clean on long final with windshear in the vicinity when you get a windshear warning and perform the escape. When you click off the autopilot and pull the pull force has to decrease or reverse to a push to maintain the attitude you want.
