Is EASA still insisting that the Max demonstrates acceptable high AOA handling characteristics without MCAS? Also what about the inability to move the trim wheel at higher airspeeds. Is the hillbilly roller coaster procedure going to be the only approved method?

I find it amazing that Boeing and the FAA still think it is OK to have an airplane where inside normal operation speed if the main stab trim motor fails or is turned off, the only other way to move the stab is with the manual wheels which can’t be moved by a normal human being unless significant into the out of trim control wheel deflection is applied. This is craziness.
