Sorry i did not enunciate this right - the Boeing 737 MAX does have 2 AoA sensors, but MCAS only takes input from 1 AoA sensor at a time.
So do the inputs 'cycle' in a way, or is the MCAS tied to one aoa sensor?

"The company said it will change the MCAS software to give the system input from more than one AOA sensor."
So: at a time, or at all?
