It is either very serious or it is not FAA and other regulators!
But lets sneak a few things past over the festive season is my impression .
Pilot unions should demand raw air-frame flight characteristics within the entire normal flight envelope.
Why that has not been released is just, well telling.
It's getting harder than ever to accept the assertion that MCAS is intended only to address the issue of stick force gradient. And it was already pretty difficult to swallow that.
If pax and the general public understood this, the whole world would be demanding the results of bare airframe tests.
