I don't think you understand the market the A32x and the 737 are in. They are planes flown by carriers who want to keep costs low. The MAX was designed the way it was because the airlines wanted more of the same with minimal retrai

Its not clear if the pilots meant trimming it manually with the switches or with the trim wheel.

The report does not actually indicate which "manually" the pilots meant, with the switches or with the trim wheel. When the question came up they went and turned the electric trim system back on and appeared to test it (only tri

Its possible and I think it was demonstrated in one of Mentour Pilot's videos that both pilots can work together to manually trim. Boeing put notes in the manual that this may be needed and it would not break the manual trim system t

The system was designed to correct an issue inherent to all aircraft with podded engines under the wings: nose up tendencies at high power settings. This was inherent in all versions of the 737, it was a bit apparent in the NG, since the

"Runaway" in the sense of "its moving in a undesired and unexpected direction and continues to do so despite attempts to stop it".
