WASHINGTON: Boeing Co should take a harder look at pilot response to cockpit emergencies in its 737 MAX safety assessment and potentially make changes to flight deck alerts, pilot procedures and training, the National Transportation Safety Board said.
Boeing's 737 MAX simulator tests with test pilots"did not look at all potential flight deck alerts and indications that pilots might face when this specific failure condition occurred in Lion Air and Ethiopian Airlines," Schulze said, adding Boeing did not evaluate the"actual scenario" in the two fatal crashes in the simulator.
FAA Deputy Administrator Dan Elwell said on Wednesday at a congressional hearing that if the AOA sensors differ by 5.5 degrees or more then MCAS cannot operate. If MCAS does operate it can only operate once unless the problem had been"completely resolved," he added.Channel NewsAsia - Sentifi topic widget
Boeing said in a statement it is"committed to working with the FAA in reviewing the NTSB recommendations."
