> Wrong, the flight preceeding the Lion Air crash had the same issue, and the pilots managed it, by switching off the stab trim system as per the runaway trim checklist. Which, notably, they did not run right away. The need to run the runaway trim checklist was pure guesswork on the pilot in the jumpseat's part. It took them several minutes of fighting with the controls before they finally killed the trim. They even re-enabled the auto trim after killing it, not initially recognizing that that was what had fixed the issue. Not even the flight that survived correctly identified the issue initially. This really isn't a case of "see, these other pilots got it right". They got lucky.
