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.
