Boeing 737 MAX Design Flaws and Manual Trim Issues
Technical analysis of the Boeing 737 MAX crashes points to a fundamental design flaw in the MCAS software and manual trim systems. At high airspeeds, pilots are physically unable to manually trim the aircraft's nose up once the computer initiates a dive. The lack of triple redundancy in the trim system is cited as a critical failure requiring recertification.
