Salute. FDR. !

Exactly right response to Canyon.

The Lion MCAS worked exactly, 100% as designed. The kludge used bad AoA from a single sensor and fought the pilot all the way.

My God, if the plane has a new feature that I do not know about and does not resemble what other features exhibit when they fail, then I guess I go into my proven “Chuck Yeager” mode! BEAM ME UP!,,,

As we may find out, even a crew that may have known about 610 flight might be overwhelmed by new malfunctions. Worse feature of MCAS is that it has the most control authority at low speed/low Mach. Damn! Just when I do not appreciate Hal trying to help me when things are going well when I retracted the flaps.
