Hello all,

My understanding from these situations is one contributing factor may be that a pilot may ultimately get into a situation where he or she has little to no ability to correct a badly out of trim Max manually or electrically due to aerodynamic loads in certain flight situations. What I have not seen is anyone noting is if this inability, irregardless of how it came about, is the same in other aircraft from Boeing or Airbus. From a 320 to a 380 or a 737 NG or 747 to a 787 would a pilot have the ability to re-trim from the same situation these two flights faced?

TME
