I very much hope that somewhere in this procedure, ideally in one of the accident reports, but sadly more likely as part of the legal disclosures in the civil actions we see the underlying data.

There is a lot of good written info, and some informed speculation by those with far better engineering backgrounds and minds than mine, but what I think all of us want is the hard data in the form of the stick force/g graphs, the Cm/alpha graphs and the flight test reports that lead to the need for MCAS.

At at the moment we know that the aircraft has an aero problem that was uncertifiable, but not the areas of the envelope it affects or its severity which means we are missing a lot of the key context to evaluate what was going on at Boeing during the flight test campaign and certification.
