      I AM pulling UP, but this is a Boeing, and every time I aim UP we somehow end up going DOWN!?!?

        Sadly this is almost true. The MAX needed the pilot to overcome the extra stick force the MCAS put in to actually pull up.

          Which is super weird because the threshold where MCAS would finally give up and let the pilot do some piloting for a change was ridiculously high (if it let go at all which is another fuckup)

          But the instructor always said to use soft moves.
