Re: Pilots were no longer in charge
Your right it was the pilot re-training that had to be kept to a minimum, I think it was basically a self taught power point presentation for the difference.
However there are degrees of re-certification, i.e. just the bits you've changed to the entire aircraft. I'm fairly sure MCAS was a minimum change in order to avoid more re-certification, which would have meant they would have had to have a comprehensive training package. Hence not having multiple inputs that would require a new computer.
