re: Flawed analysis, failed oversight: How Boeing, FAA certified the suspect 737 MAX

The pilot only had 200 hours of flight time. That’s insanely low. The planes engines are “too powerful” forcing the plane to climb too rapidly. The plane senses a stall since it’s climbing too rapidly and forces the nose down. Pilots can’t correct since they are so inexperienced and the plane crashes into the ground at full throttle

I'd advise everyone to avoid flying on non-western airlines if at all possible.

Grounding a fleet because backwards third-world airlines don't properly vet and train their pilots is stupid.

Okay. So was there any indication in the initial flight test that pointed to this flaw? Pilot inexperience you say? What about the pilots on the first crash? Were they as inexperienced as the pilots in this last crash? It was reported at least one American pilot severly critcized the flight manual for this airplane. Said it was incomplete and confusing. Obviously the FAA approved the flight manual for this airplane.
Lots of questions. But I know one thing Congress better stop this obsessive-compulsive chasing after Donald Trump and start finding some answers regarding the b/s over at the FAA. But then given the obsession with political correctness evident in Washington we may damn well never know where the failure occurred.

That's now how this works. Do you even Bernoulli?
