American Pilots Ask Boeing For Sim Time - AVweb

Why do pilots feel they need MAX-specific sim time? Add runaway stabilizer and manual trim procedures–including manually trimming from a severely out-of-trim condition (which you should never see in the first place, but I digress)–and you’ll have covered the skills required to avoid both the Lion Air and the Ethiopian Air accidents. All the lights, buzzers, clackers, and annunciators are superfluous in a runaway stabilizer scenario. A crew doesn’t have time to troubleshoot the cause of runaway stabilizer, they need to stop it immediately. They can troubleshoot the cause when they get the plane safely on the ground.
