They touted the 737 Max 8 as “just another 737” so they could use as a selling point the fact it required no significant pilot retraining for current 737 pilots.

Boing is going to be HAMMERED in lawsuits. HAMMERED.

True.But there are several variables. Where will the lawsuits be filed? Very probably in the US...but possibly elsewhere.

One thing's for certain...regardless of who weak the case might be to support culpability for Boeing (as opposed to pilot error,poor maintenance,etc) you can be sure that a judge or jury that knows *nothing* about aircraft will find for the plaintiffs.

Any NEW systems or switches added to the MAX not there on legacy 737's would have been included in pilot training. The pilots forgot how to fly the aircraft... 'Pilot Error'

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
