#3 The anti-stall system may have been related to the crash of Air France 447 in 2009.

#6 AF 447 crash was due to bad maintenance on pitot system. (Pitot system is how airspeed is computed, among other things.)
Not related to the Max debacle.

#8 USNR, with respect, the pitot tube started the debacle, but the crash resulted from a pilot holding back on the stick while ignoring 75 audible stall warnings.

#9 So, let me get this straight; Boeing deliberately covered up problems that caused crashes/deaths. Anyone being prosecuted for whatever kind of crime that is? It seems that if you are high enough in the government and/or big enough corporately there is another justice system.
