If someone who can read the article online would post some excerpts it would be appreciated. It sounds like the airline went ahead with the take-off despite an inspector demanded it to postpone.
That last part was about a different flight. The article is about Lion Air's history of poor and inaequate training, dual log books showing less hours worked than actual, and pressure to keep costs down at the expense of safety.

If you have not been on the NYT website, you can go read the article without any problems. I think they allow several articles free until they demand you have a subscription. You can also clear your cookies and read it then.
The demand to postpone the flight is for a different incident, not this accident. This article is just another rehash of the airlines poor accident record and training of the pilots.

So you don't like the airplane. Let the experts finish the investigation and tell us what really happened.

I'm like, but I don't like there is no transparency about the company's clarity about the plane, when you buy new items and you only used 2 months but the item is damaged with some components that you really do not know,You will blame yourself for buying or the seller and factory that made it??
boeing was in the spotlight because the plane was still new, and it was used for 2 months by lion air, now we blame the airline "Lion Air" as a buyer or factory "boeing" as a seller?
I know Lion Air is not good and the low in cost when compared to Garuda Indonesia is far away, but there are many great and new airplanes
If the report of the auto control system trying dozens of time during the flight to point the nose down even if that did not cause the crash, as I suspect it did, the reported fact that overcoming the trim condition is changed to one different from past models without highlighting such in training and other operational info is a Boeing over sight'
I am an amateur so correct me experts if I mis read the facts gotten off the black box thus far?
Reading his conclusion, it seems that the previous crew shutoff the electric trim system to temporarily "solve" the issue, but so far as what has been released, the crew on the fatal flight may not have.
Any airplane I know of that has an electrical trim system that has a "runaway" (more than pilot commanded, or excessive trimming from the autopilot/systems), the emergency procedure is to disable it and go to manual trimming. All pilots are trained on this.
I heard Lion Air and Boeing will get sanctions from the transportation Indonesia ministry for the Lion Air JT610 accident. maybe the one given to Lion Air is prohibited from operating / fly and maybe for Boeing is all Indonesian airlines are prohibited from buying Boeing aircraft
Not particularly shocking news, but the Rusdi Kirana, Lion Air’s owner, has threatened to cancel all their B737Max orders.
Quote:
“I was in a tough situation and they decided to beat me up,” Kirana said in an interview in Jakarta, referring to Boeing’s response to Indonesia’s preliminary report into the accident. “They have been behaving unethically, they have been acting immorally in this relationship, so we just go our separate ways.”
The accident occurred on Oct. 29, and Boeing has released their orders for B737Max for November.

Orders for the B737Max have been fairly low this year, but since total orders stand at 4,754 that is not particularly surprising

Why isn't the cause considered to be a manufacturing defect or poor design?
Based on what I read they are not redesigning and just issuing instructions to pilots on how to get out of the situation experienced by the Jakarta pilots. So Boeing seems to think they can properly train or instruct every pilot in the world to know what do to.
Not to mention the fact that none of their previously built jets have crashed this way when being only a few months old.
Maybe they need to redesign (the plane or) the parts involved. So the event can not happen again except some very extreme cause other than what brought down the Jakarta plane.

Is the investigation finished? Why not give it a chance to figure out what went wrong?
