In fact, isn't that a leading candidate for the underlying cause of at least the Lion Air crash to which the Ethiopian Airlines crash has worrisome similarities? The aircraft are different in balance but Boeing added software to make them fly almost exactly the same as a 738 to save airlines crew retraining costs, and the preliminary evidence suggests that software reacted in a catastrophic way to bad sensor data in the Lion Air case. So 7M8 pilots are largely 738 pilots with less retraining than is typical for a new airplane, right?
