I understand the intent here, but as revealed by the FDR traces, the crew of the fated flight clearly understood there was a trim issue, they repeatedly applied trim opposite to that applied by the...

I think that is exactly the case. This MCAS system is something added for the MAX (but not documented...). There are lots and lots of NGs out there, and I think it safe to assume both Boeing and the...

If the use of AoA sensor data hasn't changed from the NG then this accident must truly be a black swan event”

Based on the Boeing and...
