Investigators Believe Boeing 737 MAX Stall-Prevention Feature Activated in Ethiopian CrashOfficials investigating the fatal crash of a Boeing 737 MAX in Ethiopia have reached a preliminary conclusion that a suspect flight-control feature automatically activated before the plane nose-dived into the ground. Would have been a shocker if that wasn’t the case. Incredibly sad that these ppl died so unnecessarily. Completely preventable. Hearts and prayers with the victims and their families. So the plane has 2 AoA probes, but only uses input from one at a time into it's Air Data Computer. So if the one it's using malfunctions, the plane thinks it's stalling and pitches nose down. How about use both AoA probes, for redundancy/reliability?
