I think a whistle blower has stated the single AoA reference was a known flaw - but using both sensors, would then lead to "extra training" not a iPad conversion training platform.

If that turns out to be fact it is an intended flaw in the software. MAX simulators are low in numbers for a reason and that reason is there is nothing new here. Certainly not 3 things that play with flight controls.

It should be checked as to the other new items, if they also are accurate on the MAX simulators.

Given the events in Russia recently,that nose wheel one could play a factor.
