No offense to those here but I would feel a hell of a lot better if Boeing were demoing the system to engineers rather than (or in addition to) pilots. Perhaps Airbus engineers? The best testers are your competitors.

I have no experience with aircraft but their solution does not give me the warm fuzzies. One thing that I find extremely weird is that it silently disables MCAS if the AOA sensors differ by five degrees. So do you need MCAS or not?
