very low on the believability index: so maybe this is a fishing expedition to gather a payout from tAir Canada, and i believe even less about the degree of anxiety that remains afterwards. Air Canada at most should offer free drinks coupons and send her off....

so, an inherient instability problem was diagnosed, and the fix was to make a limited but defficient computer patch or fix, to overcome design instability. Avoid the underlying problem, but use external sensors, but only one of them, not the safe and sane number of at least two of them, and then turn the Boeing Bucking Bronco loose on the worlds unsuspecting airlines. wow...

everybody, from board members, to executives, to those who designed the defective system, to those who aided in coverup: all those have to walk the plank, be fired, lose their jobs, and face the justice system promptly/ There are crimes that have been committed, passengers and crew lost their lives due to those crimes, and as polite as we all would like to be, there must be accountablity,. and that means trials and possible prison terms.

clues were left strewn about the pilot's house, the simulator in point of fact, and very little points elsewhere, in my mid.

whoops:.... we expect the wing to remain in place..... sorry about that....

i question the mindset of the folks directing policy at Boeing. The rite of passage in a new wing design is when the wing is bent in the test to destruction. The resounding "crack" sound gives me a chill and some confidence as well, for under no situation vaguely possible ought the wing to be ever bent as in the test, so we expect the wind to remain in place , doing its purpose. The manufacturer must be even more foolish than recently revealed, if there is serious policy to make that test wholly digital..

lets be careful about annointing sullengerger with infalliability, for that would be wrong. He does possess the safety conciousness lacking from boeing, but it was never the designers or executives ass on the line with the bucking bronco 737 max as it was with Lion Air and Ethiopian Air, and the other owners of several hundred flying defectives, the Max 737, as well as the unsuspecting passengers.I have known about the FAA for years as defective , disfunctional, and policy-rigid. Some changes must be made, for can we, the flying public, really have confidence in either Boeing or the FAA? not I....Not now....

these new planes are to exploit the asian market, and we still wait to find out whose aircraft flies to London and New YOrk non-stop.

i differ with the writer who says it is time to move on. Into what?- blissful ignorance of cause and effe ct? i think not... Boeing needs to be castigated, spanked, exposed even more, and brought into the court of public opinion and into Federal Court over outrageous, unforgivable corporate behavior. REquired simulator time is necessary and smart, and those machines run 24/7. If an aircraft is not predictable, it is not flyable.

is it beyond boeing's expertise to duplicate this machine? Or even to surpass it?
