The 737 Max flew millions of hours in North America and Europe before going down in Africa and Indonesia. I flew on it more than once.
The Max is no DC-10. It's a safe aircraft, provided the crews are properly trained.

Also, one would think that all automated controls on an aircraft should yield to manual inputs as the highest priority. It seems that was not the case with MCAS, and that alone was a grave design error.
