EASA.
FWIW, the Brazilian regulator (whose name I don't remember...) did not rubber-stamp the FAA's type certification of the 737 MAX, and required some differences training for MCAS, IIRC.
- jefftk 8y agoVery curious whether the additional Brazilian MCAS training would have helped, given how strange its behavior appears in practice.
- FabHK 8y agoGood question. Would be interesting to hear what (if any) additional training pilots there got. And, yes, the Ethiopian Air pilots apparently did follow the procedures initially, flipping the Stab Trim Cutout switches, but did not manage to recenter the trim manually (via the trim wheel), so apparently re-enabled electric trim, and then let MCAS drive the trim even further down to their doom. :-/
