But since you want to be that picky about it, lets get to it. I never wrote that this plane nor any other had a "stick pusher", Im not an airline pilot, dont know this much detail. So if you see a major difference in what you wrote. ""a new pitch trim enhancement that uses electric trim to lower the nose". from what I wrote. then you should be a lawyer for Lion Air, and or Boeing. To me, as as simple pilot of about 4 decades, if the trim or the computer or softwear or stick push or whatever, if trying to lower the nose, while the pilots are trying to raise it that is a problem, especially if the pilots arent really aware of this tendency or the cure, which may be as easy as you say. But your theory of how simple and easy the fix is, doen't jibe with THE FACTUAL DATA FROM THE BLACK BOX WHICH SHOWS THEY HAD MAJOR PITCH PROBLEMS AND FINALLY CRASHED.
DRGT, I have no doubt that you would be unlikely to change any of your thinking or prejudices by anything I wrote or any accident report. And my post had nothing to do with anyone buying or selling stock.
