Freepers love to beat up so called third world pilots some of whom have more experience flying in crap weather and poor airports than some milk train driver from DFW to LAX has

This bird should not be willing itself into crash scenario pell mell due to automated avionics

Quit blaming the pilot

Right after take off essentially new plane decides to dive in the ocean and doesn’t respond to yoke and hey dang it you forget to engage trim override as you’re going down the role coaster

And it’s shown now these pilots were not warned since Boeing soft pedaled this roll outs issues

Boeing is going to get hit on this

Lawyers gonna get rich

Those blaming the Pilot in this case are just IDIOTS....

Yes the co pilot had few hours.. but the pilot had over 8000 hours of air time, and a spotless record...

BOEING and the FAA both failed completely... its clear the version of the max with only a single sensor should have never been certified for airworthiness. About 350 people are now dead, not because of Pilot error... the Human Failings for these crashes happened years before their flights on the drawing boards.

How the FAA ever allowed airworthiness certification for a plane that had a single point of failure in a system that could override pilot inputs is inexcusable.

Anyone blaming the Pilots in this just shows their willful ignorance.
