I've said it before and I'll continue to say it despite the downvotes: Ask what plane a flight is on, and refuse the flight if it is moved to a 737 Max.

I don't care if Boeing decided "this revision" of the 737 Max is safe. I insist on only flying in airplanes that the pilots were trained to fly on, without a compatibility layer between the pilots' training and the airframe characteristics.

I don't fly often, but I go further. I just don't fly Boeing unless it's a 747.

747 || Airbus || Embraer

My airline of choice is American. I can see what a particular route is flying prior to purchasing tickets. There are enough Airbus aircraft in their fleet for me to pull this off.

just an interesting tidbit: all 737 pilots were trained how to handle a runaway stabilizer.

The crime of the 737Max was that the MCAS fucking shit into the wind and introduced an unbelievably dumb stochastic failure mode (every X seconds MCAS adjusted the stabilizer), and the pilots had no idea what's doing it.
