Well, how's it looking a year farther on? Did anybody in this thread have an insight into what the problem with the Max is?
Sounds like these pilots would have benefited from a few hours of ultralight time instead of relying on the video game.
I'm saying ALL airline types would!

Refer back to two B757 accidents about 1990. One a German charter out of the Dominican Republic and the other out of Lima.
I haven't heard anyone mention the rudder problem of PGH. Could this be a repeat design problem, seems kind of sudden based on the plot form FlightAware.
Good thought, but by the same token those all happened on approach after the a/c descended from High Altitude... This one just took off and did not have time to freeze as the others had done. The only time that they would fail was after a long altitude flight and by today's standards all 737 pilots if not all Boeing captain's are trained on how to over come this issue. I very seriously doubt that this was the case.
Like I said the lack of real pilots in this day and age is scary { I have been doing this for more than 65 yrs and use every system available at all times !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It has been proven time and again that we no longer have real Pilots but computer operators that no longer have the skills to really fly an airplane !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
