Folks, Just in case you detect it's a bit nose heavy, remember your
instinctive check back on the column will not work . . .
Actually, maybe it will and maybe it won't, depending upon whether MCAS, STS or something else is operating or failing.
. . . so use thumb switches as
required and be prepared to activate stab trim cut out switches, and continue
with manual trim if necesary.
And if you aren't sufficiently out of trim and/or at an airspeed where manual trim is effectively impossible.
Ignore other distacting noises if they are
obviously not credible.
Refer to iPad training: "Identifying validity of flight deck cacophony in three seconds or less."
The numerous test flights, ferry flights, etc. that are going on almost daily operate
exactly to this scenario, perfectly safely.
We know this . . . how?
Allow the Max back into service right now if Flight/Maintenance crews are so briefed.
I wonder why no one thought of this solution in April?
