I'm still reeling from the shock of watching the subcontracting issues on the parallel thread. I was totally unaware of this. The gist I got was that the problem is so serious that no one seems able to face addressing it.

Current crews and engineers will no doubt be au fait with the issue. Just what is going on?

Rather drawn out, but so bewildering it took my mind off MCAS.

It seems the $1M deal was with at least the company with the largest single order of 280 aircraft - Southwest Airlines.

That seems a very high number to compensate for simulator training being a requirement - $1M is a lot of simulator hours.
