Ham-fisted
What a ham-fisted fix MCAS is. Others here have referred to it as a "kludge", which would have to be a similarly appropriate description.
As designed, the MCAS can (and will) produce nose-down pitching moments far, far stronger than the small nose-up moments it was designed to counter.
As designed and certified!
Can anybody seriously describe such a fix as anything other than ham-fisted?
