Not that I'm a conspiracy theorist here, but guess what Egypt Air, AA 587 and the Alaska MD-80 with the bad jackscrew all have in common? They all had trouble with autopilot and/or yaw damper systems either not engaging or failing self-test immediately prior to their accidents.....
Egypt Air also had a bad "I rely on Allah" system. CVR indicted it went off numerous times before impact despite all attempts to engage it by the relief FO.
