- konschubert 3y agoThen let’s make it obvious and include it in the training.

Which cuts right to the heart of the B737 MAX issue - Boeing substantially changed the design, then added sensors & software to make the changed airframe handle similarly to the old 737 airframe and claimed that this meant the pilots did not need retraining If Boeing had been upfront about MCAS, and required that pilots were trained in what it did and how to override it then the crashes probably would not have happened.
- Dylan16807 3y agoTraining or not, the system was not obvious and the override was even further from obvious.
- shiroiuma 3y agoNo, we need more than this: the system must be documented and pilots must be trained for it. If the aircraft manufacturer fails to do this, they go to prison. If it's found that hiding this information was intentional, the corporate executives and everyone else in the company who knew are publicly executed by firing squad (with them aiming at their stomachs).
