I think we've drifted back into discussion about what MCAS did vs. what it should have done if it were even needed, how the AoA might have failed, etc. It's interesting and since there are plenty of competing views and differing understandings, it can go on for a very long time. (I'm biting my virtual tongue to keep from prolonging the AoA argument.)

However, all of this is based upon an MCAS system that will never fly again, so its really a tech discussion relevant mostly to the two accident flights -- extremely important, obviously, but not really on-point WRT the currently-pressing issues of the effects of the grounding, investigations, the fix and testing, certification etc. on Boeing, customers, crews and pax, and worldwide civil aviation.

Boeing stock is approaching 3 million shares traded in a few minutes since the open. Average daily volume is less than 4.5 million.
