Most of those reports involved the autopilot or were while flaps were extended, which disables MCAS. The ones that did not were complaining about not being informed about MCAS and not about it actuating. There were even incidents reported as being MCAS that did not involve stabilizer trim or a 737 MAX.
- pdonis 7y agoReports like the one where the plane started descending when autopilot was engaged are still relevant because they indicate issues with the angle of attack sensor, which is also what MCAS relies on.
