I agree. Automation is not the problem.

Airbus aircraft have done very well with fly-by-wire and extensive automation. Their safety over the last 20 years is excellent.

Boeing rushed the 737Max and should have done a clean-sheet design.

Agree. Boeing should recall the 737 Max and do a major modification to the structure, location of wings and engines or just eat the cost and scrap the plane altogether. Otherwise, appears to me this plane will be nothing but trouble going forward.

I disagree.

Boeing used automation to try and cover up a serious design flaw.
