The problem is that this software “fix” just allows MCAS to be disabled and returns the airplane to the state of instability that made the FAA require the MCAS to begin with.
Written off? There is nothing to write off.
The Max aircraft are not unstable, they are just fine, they just handle differently than the NG, MCAS is supposed to make flying the Max feel the same as flying the NG, MCAS was not mandated/required by the FAA - not sure where anyone is getting that idea from.
