An experienced US military trained pilot would have rolled the aircraft inverted where nose down inputs become nose up. Might have given them more time to troubleshoot or unpower the MCAS. Problem is Boeing didn’t even put this system in the pilot’s aircraft systems Manuel and seems there was no training for spurious inputs that might require disabling it.
