I don't always agree with Byron Bailey, but, on this occasion, I do.
Tootle pip!!
It would be nice if you could quote those articles. The only mentions I've seen in the past were to issues that were clearly not MCAS due to the fact they were occurring with A/P engaged. They were bought up by journalists breathlessly trying to connect dots that shouldn't be connected.
