I would like to know why Boeing didn't install the "optional" AoA sensor fail light after Lion Air. Oh right - they're $80,000 each. Saved a penny!
I'd also like to know why any pilot who flew the Max didn't know about the MCAS (and knew immediately how to identify a failed AoA) after Lion Air.
It's not just one failure - it's a layer cake of failure.

These issues are allegedly addressed in the software update for the MCAS system, but how could such a flawed design have ever passed muster in the first place?
