A Boeing 737 Max aircraft during the Farnborough International Airshow, in Farnborough, Britain, July 20, 2022. Under the settlement, Boeing paid $2.5 billion to avoid prosecution on a criminal charge of defrauding federal regulators who approved the 737 MAX. The settlement included a $500 million fund to compensate victims' families and a $243.6 million fine.Most of the settlement funds went tothat weren't able to use their 737 MAX jets for nearly two years while the aircraft were grounded following the crashes.
A faulty sensor in the 737 MAX's automated flight-control system that Boeing didn't initially disclose to airlines and pilots was involved in both crashes. The planes' angle-of-attack sensor gave the pilots an erroneous reading from the anti-stall system and repeatedly forced the plane to nose down, causing them to lose control of the aircrafts.
