The Federal Aviation Administration didn't ensure Boeing adequately planned for pilot response to 737 Max system failures, NTSB says

The NTSB released recommendations Thursday after its investigation into the certification of the 737 Max. The agency specifically scrutinized the evaluation process for the Boeing 737 Max's Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System , a critical system at the center of two catastrophic crashes that left more than 300 people dead. The NTSB believes variances in pilot behavior are not being fully considered when the FAA evaluates an aircraft for certification.

The NTSB said Boeing test pilots never ran a scenario in the simulator that involved a situation where a false angle-of-attack reading triggered the MCAS system, which is what investigators believe happened in both 737 Max crashes.In both the Lion Air and Ethiopian Air crashes, the pilots faced a cascade of flight warning alerts, and it's believed the multiple alerts made it difficult for the pilots to quickly identify the problem.

Life inside the NY drug scene!! NYC

CNNPolitics HouseDemocrats Follow the money; at the “administration” urging, they probably fast-tracked the certification for the financial benefit of Boeing; staunch Trump/GOP contributor. This should also be investigated; hundreds of people died for the irresponsibility!

Yeah, cause letting companies regulate themselves has worked out so well for people. 😕

Boeing settles first 737 Max lawsuits with families of Indonesia crash victimsAlmost a year after a Lion Air 737 Max crashed off the coast of Indonesia killing 189 people, Boeing has started settling lawsuits brought by the families of victims.

Not enough $1.2 million is it?! 🤦🏼‍♂️ Boeing can prepared $2B for share buyback but only $50m for compensation?

Federal investigators say the FAA's Boeing 737 Max inspectors were insufficiently trainedThe U.S. Office of the Special Counsel says FAA inspectors who worked on the Boeing 737 Max and other aircraft were underqualified and that the air safety agency misled lawmakers about it. Or Boeing took 'Good Care' of 'em 🤔 FAA didn't do any inspecting as they off loaded their responsibilities to Boeing to tell them all was OK. Stop making up stories.

Boeing to start paying families of Max 737 crash victimsThe compensation fund pledged $50 million to family members of the 346 killed in the Lion Air and Ethiopian Airlines crashes. 144K? Who signed off on that? That’s a desig flaw. It should be $100K for every second those poor people suffered on the way down. Oh that’s right they’re from another country, it’s cheaper over there. It's the right thing to do , but it still won't heal the families' Not even close to being enough. Anything less than a million is an insult. But then we wouldn’t want to give away so much money that the Boeing execs bonuses might shrink now would we!!
