Boeing rushed the Max 8 into the market before adequate testing had been conducted on this model. Rushed out of the hangar after making modifications to the engine placement on the wing. This change caused the nose to pitch down. Watch the excellent video on Flieger Faust. That demonstrates how control is lost because of a larger nacelle is moved farther out on the wing negatively changing the aerodynamics of the aircraft. The nose pitches down and control is ultimately lost. The pilots had no idea how to escape this deadly situation.

That was not the cause of the accidents. The planes didn't stall and the position of the engines and the size of the nacelle didn't contribute.

What caused the crashes were faulty or damaged AOA sensors and software problems in the MCAS system, and a failure of the crew to deal with them effectively.

Please watch the video its clear as day.

I've watched the video and I know what you're saying.

My points is that while the MCAS system was modified to deal with a potential stall due to the revised engine placement and nacelle size in the 737 MAX, the conditions under which the system is expected to engage did not exist in the two accidents. Even if the planes had used engines from earlier models, faulty sensor input and the poor design of the MCAS system would still have resulted in the same conditions that the pilots didn't or couldn't handle. It was faulty or damaged sensors and how the MCAS system responded that doomed the two flights.

If they had used the earlier engines, would the movement forward by placement been negated by not moving them?
