Another almost near disaster
#1
A Southwest 737Max 8 came within 400 feet of crashing into the ocean on a flight from Honolulu to Kauai back in April. 

Apparently this was caused by a junior pilot and the seasoned Captain was able to regain control. 

However, for several seconds it was total horror for those aboard who suddenly were put into a loss of altitude that was as close to a “nose dive” as can be to be followed by a climb back up once the Captain regained control that was as near to a “vertical climb” as can be. 

Further, this was never officially reported to the FAA and was only disclosed after inquiries from Bloomberg, in which the FAA officially opened an investigation. 

What happens when all the seasoned Captains are gone?
