slacktide: #740
Utterly different? Disagree. On the 737 NG, there is also a piece of software also has control of the most powerful flying control surface. That piece of software is called STS. In fact based on statements in the most recent draft FAA FSB report on the MAX, MCAS is a sub-functionalty of STS.
Fair comment.
Not part of the 'argument', but thoughts going back to the STS seemingly working in reverse.
