Anyway it wasn't two AoA vanes with the constant offset.
It could be that neither AoA vane is at fault and maybe just the installation triggered another problem causing the constant offset.
To compound the problem even more, the CAPT/FO of JT-043 didn't report the "stick shaker", or the fact that they had to perform the NNC for "runaway stabilizer". The MX had no idea about those "very serious" occurrences. The holes in the cheese started to line up...
