No, dynamic instability refers to planes that require constant control inputs to avoid departure from unstable flight.

There are no expert sources that describe the 737 MAX as dynamically unstable.

Not many people would be in a position to know this. Random aviation "experts" certainly aren't going to know the detailed flight envelope characteristics of a particular aircraft model.




I literally linked 2 articles with expert opinion describing 737 Max airframe experiencing dynamic instability. You have not provided a single source and appears didn't even bother to look at my sources.

Hacker News is a place of discourse. If you think I'm wrong and my sources are wrong, point out specifically where and provide counter sources to validate and support your position.

No one is going to take your word for it.


The article you link in this thread reports comments from this person:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Garrison

How would this person know in detail the aerodynamic characteristics of the 737 MAX?

The other article you link gives no source for its claim, expert or otherwise. You should also check the comment by Jake Brodsky on that one.


Ad hominem. Both articles were posted under the banner of internationally known and recognized news sources. Whereas in stark contrast you posted a quora thread with 3 replies.
