If there were a fatal flaw in any component, hdwe, sw, or training, it would not be revealed until the fix was ready. The last thing the world needs is grounding of 1,000 airplanes until a fix for a once-in-ten-year event is found, thoroughly tested and implemented.

Meanwhile, if the above were true, the pilots would have to take the heat.

Agree ..... mostly

It's too late to make the aircraft fly itself. It can be flown safely if one knows how even with an unexpected disconnected AP. Now how should we address the problem?

me thinks the pilots should not be held responsible to solve this problem
