Post #428,284 by crazy 4/6/19 8:32:45 AM 4/6/19 8:32:45 AM Reply	BS Listen hard to that video. Basically he is STILL blaming pilots saying MCAS is adding to their workload, not saying its failure is killing people. He is saying if the pilots were faster they'd still be alive. MCAS Should have 3 sensors. If they disagree, let them vote. If 2 match, use the information. If not, turn system off and alarm the hell out of the cockpit. This is simple. This is CHEAP. Systems that can kill people should FAILSAFE. Always check the goddamn data!
