Not if the engineers were assured the pilots would be trained to quickly recognize trim issues and flip off the MCAS when it started misbehaving.

- frostburg 8y agoNo, it's still obvious fail-deadly insanity. Having to say that the pilots would need to quickly notice issue is even worse (have you seen how you disable the system? It's not a button that you push). The point of the plane variant was to not perform any additional training, too. Anyone saying that to the engineers should be considered a criminal. There is probably a whole incentive structure that lead to this and that should be upended completely.
