Despite the quirky website address the moonofalabama article is both interesting and well written. Hard to argue the 737 NG is not 'safe' given it's track record, but Boeing (and the FAA) will struggle to explain how they got to this place: 'We made the stabiliser bigger, which increased the loads it could generate, and made the trim wheel smaller, so it was harder to turn. And then deleted the procedure that told you how to use the trim wheel at high loads.'
