Ineed, after Lion Air I though Boeing should have made this feature available for free in all MAX airplanes. Could the ET be prevented if they had this display? Interestingly, Boeing only lost 15% at NYSE. For comparison, Volkswagen lost over 60% due to their emission scandal. But this could be, and should be big if it's due to MCAS.
