7X is back flying (ferry only for now) and they say a fix is almost ready....at least the first part of one to get it back in service.

The FCS itself really did what it was supposed to, the question is why didn't the system downgrade to a lower level (as designed) with a nose-up trim motor runaway. Nose down was more my concern, but nose down trim runaway is designed to be fully overcome with stick pressure alone...

Initial understanding is that a manual pitch reversion switch will be installed.

Hopefully FBW will continue to advance with minor hiccups only...remember when 737s were losing rudders left and right? everyone still hops on those everyday.

Get used to FBW - its not going away....and despite some concerning, odd $hit like this LOL, I have no problem flying any FBW airplane..in the big picture it will make flying far more efficient and safer.
