This story seems to be unraveling quickly this week, reflecting badly on both Boeing and the regulators, but giving us (non-experts) a lot more clarity on how/why/when/where/what. Pity we had to have two crashes to find this all out...
Interesting assertion in a 737NG pilot's YT video - the KC-46 also has an MCAS-like system but it relies on input from both alpha vanes and disconnects on opposite control column input. Big difference in CG I understand but if true, why would Boeing not carry the same philosophy over to the MAX?
Well, would appear to be accurate.
