From the article:
"told the crew to cut power to the motor driving the nose down, according to the people familiar, part of a checklist that all pilots are required to memorize."
Emphasis mine.
- inferiorhuman 8y agoYeah, that's part of the checklist for runaway trim (which I've posted in a previous comment). That same checklist says to stop if the stabilizer stops moving after you counter with trim button input. MCAS stops after you counter with the trim buttons.
