737 Driver

I appreciate You taking it upon Yourself educating us all from Your unique standpoint as an experienced 737 driver.
What You fail to see is that You and not so few 737 "drivers" are not in the game on this one, as there is a tendency to fully understand a rather ancient and outdated system.
It is up to the young and smart magenta-line N-CAA Inspectors and Regulators to be 110% happy with what FAA and Boeing have done in the Certification process and RE-Certification process.
THEN, if GO is the answer:after how many Sim maneuvers required.
And to be honest , they are doing Boeing and FAA a favor.
For, if there is a MCAS/ STS or Stall incident or accident it is all over.
It is not so much a technical/aerodynamic challenge as it is a Human factors CRM issue.
As You , I love the Old Girl, but she is ugly and she does bite.
Bit of a handfull for the young cadre, me thinks.

Just for the record:
Never in Aviation History have we had such a mess:
1 AOA failing on new aircraft.

2 AOA feeding incredible crude deadly system without redundancy ( NO Pilots are NOT part of System Redundancy, Sir!)

3 FAA total lack of involvement.

No accident has this combination, ever.

(4 A possible lack of will to understand and admit fault by Manufacturer.)

Regards
