Re: B737MAX Grounded Worldwide

And again, WHY is there not a MACAS and STS off switch while flying manually? And WHY is Boeing not contemplating such a switch? Perhaps if Boeing mount such a button and allow pilots to turn off MCAS in flight, pilots probably could no longer fly the MAX series safely due to its fundamental design...

Re: Should airline regulators consider grounding B737 MAX series

Exactly my thoughts, well said Sir. It is the way how both, Boeing and the FAA handles this crisis what makes people become even more suspicious. As if they had much worse to cover up!
