According to Blancolirio on YT (a wholehearted thumbs up for his journalism, e.g. the video on atlas prime air is worth a watch, he currently flies as FO on the 777 I believe), there exists an angle of attack disagree light already in the 737max options sheet. There's also an option to purchase an AoA indicator dial, and he said one of the major us carriers did buy that option on their aircraft.
- mhandley 8y agoYes, that's correct. But the implications of AoA disagree are different for the older 737 and the Max with the new software installed. On the Max, this means that the plane will now fly differently at high AoAs than it did if the AoA disgree light was not lit. This is something pilots will need to be trained for.

- heisenbit 8y agoThere is a huge difference of displaying angle of attack as input to educated pilots to feeding it into a system which has the authority to override the pilot with little warning. The problem with the 737MAX airframe is that the pitch up seems to be so strong that nothing else than immediate MCAS feedback can reign it in.
