I dont understand much of redundancy of sensors, yet '3' would allow to ignore the 'bogus' reading.
- jonplackett 6y agoIt seems such a weird thing to cut corners on. The main new feature in a plane solving a problem that they knew was potentially dangerous which is why they had to install the auto-nose-down system in the first place. How expensive could a couple of extra sensors even be compared to a whole plane?
- anoncake 6y agoMaybe the extra sensors added significant drag?
