As I wrote from the start; You can NOT fix a HARDWARE issue with a SOFTWARE update.
There are so many other AOA sensors systems available. => Drop those stupid 1950-1960 era vanes.
Ey dude, wake up, it‘s 2019 out there, YOU CAN FIX ANYTHING WITH SOFTWARE...
especialy when your competitor is flooding the market with a good new product and you got nothing in comparison.
And concerning AOA sensors, we are talking about 737, everything must be cheap as sh..., you cant rip off taxpayers like on a military program.
This is really a Frankenstein A/C, built in a hurry with a lot of old dead rotting parts mixed with some new stuff that would not fit but was bound together with questionable software.
And there is more to come, let’s wait for the first Landing Attitude Modifier screw ups...
