The mechanics should be vetted and above reproach.

That said, the weak link on the 737 Max was the automatic overcorrection of attitude, forcing the nose down by automatically driving the stabilizer.

If this plane was one of the regular, pre-MAX variety, would that have been possible, even if the velocity indicators were off?

“The mechanics should be vetted and above reproach.”

Supposedly he had been working as a mechanic for American Airlines since 1988. Who would suspect someone of doing something like this after 30 yrs?

So, is it possible that the 737 Max’s that crashed after takeoff in Ethiopia and other foreign airliner could have been due to sabotage and not Boeings mechanical mistakes?

The weak link was the pilots.
