Have you tried to manually trim a 737 once it's out of trim, you really have to push the nose down to unload the tail..which would be extremely difficult for anyone to do so low to the ground and with such little time to figure out what was happening. The first incident okay, I think most of us wouldn't have crashed that one.
You know there were incidents in the United States prior to those crashes, right? Notice that none of them crashed and killed people? The US pilots turned the system off and left it off like we are taught with most problems, turn off the systems and fly the airplane till you figure it out. Do pilot ****. So YES, these was a blame on Boeing but the pilots are the ones who flew it into the ground when trying to turn the systems back on.
