Got that in an email from senior cockpit crew at a major US carrier yesterday...did not see it posted here .....and the email was as 'washed' as the post of detail such as what type of sim and when was it run which could give an idea of what data they were working with.

The results they got in those 'rides' is chilling but I would think there has been more than that run around the world....would like to see the variables and the subsequent results for comparison. Absent recovery and download of data from the boxes these sim runs could provide a 'next best' look into possible causes.

This incident, down the road, could have a long term impact on future aircraft automation for manufacturers and suppliers in regards to flight into severe weather as well as a possible 'relook' of systems already certified IMHO....for all manufacturers and suppliers.
