How to Disable a Malfunctioning Flight-control System
As the Lion Aircrew fought to control their diving Boeing Co. 737 Max 8, they got help from an unexpected source: an off-duty pilot who happened to be riding in the cockpit.
That extra pilot, who was seated in the cockpit jump seat, correctly diagnosed the problem and told the crew how to disable a malfunctioning flight-control system and save the plane, according to two people familiar with Indonesia’s investigation.
The next day, under command of a different crew facing what investigators said was an identical malfunction, the jetliner crashed into the Java Sea killing all 189 aboard.

Second Iranian Fokker in three days suffers gear failure
None of the 81 passengers and eight crew members was injured. The aircraft was jacked but the main landing gear failed to extend when commanded.  Inspection of the hydraulic system revealed that contamination in the vicinity of filter screens and the restrictor check valve in the right-hand main gear had prevented the release of hydraulic pressure, and stopped its deployment.

Aviation Fees & Taxes Increase
US airlines have hit out at proposed Trump Administration aviation tax increases they estimate will cost passengers an extra  $US2.9 billion a year.  Aviation lobby group Airlines for America (A4A) has said the “unnecessary” tax increases in the 2020 budget would be in addition to the $US25 billion customers already pay each year into government coffers through 17 federal aviation taxes, and fees. The increases include a rise in the Transport Security Administration passenger security fee from $US5.60 to $US6.60 in fiscal 2020 and from $US6.60 to $US8.25 starting in the financial year 2021.
