Water Pilot.

Band-aid # 1 - introduce MCAS at 0.6 degrees from design estimates.
Band-aid # 2 - increase speed and travel of MCAS to 2.5 degrees, and a few other changes to fix the "opposite end of envelope" unforeseen issues.
Band-aid # 3 - tell pilots that MCAS exists and supply a vague reference about trim runaway procedure with a "note" that it could be a good idea to trim to neutral, before hitting the cutouts.
Band-aid # 4 - change the position, colour and shape of band-aid # 2.

But the big problem is that almost every day a new wound is being discovered, I expect much more is to follow.
