No quarrel with L39 Guy's post. Even this: "Boeing erred with MCAS but the fault for these accidents are the result of failure of the players noted above."

I'll just repeat what I said earlier about 0.6% of the worldwide Max fleet disappearing (poof!) in five months owing to survivorless crashes. If we're admitting that Boeing erred with MCAS (and indeed part of that error was hiding the very existence of MCAS from crews and pretending to airlines that this airplane required no expensive stuff like like time-consuming training) then we're admitting that the Max accentuates normal human failings among crews and turns them into Lethal Errors, which somehow don't occur on other aircraft (ETH somehow has managed to operate the 777, A350, whatever, so far without incident). What does this tell us about the fundamental realities of the Max?
