Disagree, Safety.

Do not confuse pre-stall awareness with the flawed assumption of pilot ability in identifying a system failure - deficient design, engineering, certification. The accidents demonstrated that reliance on pilots for identifying MCAS failure and mitigation was ill-judged, but showed nothing about stall handling.


- It's really hard to identify a system failure or anomaly if you do not know it is there!!! And what it is supposed to do.
- What other gizmos are in the plane that were not in the previous versions?
- Where was mention that the trim cutout switch wiring was different than previous models?

What Boeing did and the lack of FAA actions in the certification process as to crew procedures related to MCAS still gives me chills. GASP!
