Max has been grounded for how long now? Max ain’t getting its wings back any time soon or they would not be being ferried to storage facilities. Max obviously has serious issues. Yes the previous Lion Air flight had issues, was it the same fault? What did engineers do to it overnight? Nothing is as simple as it seems.

It does not matter how good you are, if an aircraft is uncontrollable it doesn’t matter how good you are.

I have said it before, I have crashed a sim when over zealous instructor put an non flyable situation of failures into the box! It is not a nice feeling and that’s a sim where the whoops freeze button is hit and a erm sorry ensues.........

I’ve read many articles on Max.

The most interesting one was the Boeing test pilots that took 8000’ to correct the MCAS activation/failure whatever you call it. Now how high were Ethiopian and Lion?
