    Looks like that's one of the planes Southwest is flying to Hawaii.

      According to Boeing it’s the pilots’ responsibility to turn off the automatic maneuvering system when it appears malfunctioning, instead of Boring’s responsibility to fix the system. ��

        Maybe the system should be completely disabled and/or planes grounded until they figure out why it is apparently causing crashes?

        I imagine there are some pretty interesting internal discussions going on at Boeing right now.

          Just booked a trip with AA...and I admit to looking at the plane models expected for each flight. Good old Airbus 319s and 320s (never thought I'd say that).

            Imagine if Kelly Green was due to fly on one of these?

            He'd be clutching the rabbit's foot and the papal medallion with his sausage links!

              China already grounded its entire fleet of 737 Max 8’s. I’m thinking they expect Boeing to fix the problem.

              I have to believe that since Boeing knows the problem, they know the solution. Train your pilots isn’t good enough.
