*******************************************
Boeing is finalizing its development of a previously-announced software update and pilot training revision
*************************************************
So, Boeing is “finalizing” a for its software (presumably because they found an issue in the code’s logic?), but have no idea - or are unwilling to say - what the cause of the deadly crashes are?
**********************************************
I assume nobody is reading this thread anymore but I thought I’d post this item. Looks like I might not be too far off. So the code written by somebody really may have contributed/caused to the failures.

Very interesting narration on the AOA sensor in a youtube video

Narrarator used some “adult language” in this production so viewer discretion is advised. That being said, I take issue with the fact that many commentators are quick to blame the manufacturer of the product rather than the OPERATOR. My thought process is this. If a pilot needs a blinking light on your dashboard to tell you that your plane is in a nose dive and your STAB TRIM is continuing to ADD nose down trim. Rather than try to figure out WHY isn’t it prudent to simply turn OFF the STAB trim and manually crank the wheel back to level flight or climb pitch?
