Thank you very much for the link. If true, and more and more seems to point into this direction, we can pretty much lay the arguments of the "badly educated and overworked third world pilots who are too dumb to work a checklist" to rest. I always found that reasoning rather bigoted and jingoistic. It seems more that Boeing was selling a death trap certified by their cronies at the FAA. What galls me most is the fact that they didn't ground that atrocity after the Lion Air crash, but used their energies to throw customers and pilots under the bus and developed a checklist, which, as it turns out, is actually counterproductive and does nothing to fix the inherent design problems of the plane. If anything, it serves the exact opposite. The second crash is mass murder for commercial reasons, period. If not legally then at the very minimum morally.
