If MCAS will no longer correct for impending stall, how does Boeing intend to deal with the inherent instability problem? The next Boeing 737MAX accident will be a convention stall, but the passengers will be just as dead.

If it happens I hope it would be at a high enough altitude for the pilots to save the plane.

One way of dealing with the problem is that Boeing is sayig the 737MAX us not suitable for High/Hot airports. This is a major restriction on the design.

Addis Ababa, for instance, is no longer a suitable airport for this aircraft.
