Re: I guess (Boing should know better)

I wouldn't put the rudder problem into the same category as the MCAS f**k-up. There's a big difference between knowing that there's a deliberate design problem and actively hiding it, and having a latent design problem that no-one had anticipated. As to whether the thermal shock/cyling issues were reasonably forseeable is another debate. As to whether the MCAS debacle was forseeable - I don't think there's any debate about that.
