Boeing Co. engineers working on a flight-control system for the 737 MAX omitted key safeguards that had been included in an earlier version of the same system used on a military tanker jet, people familiar with the matter said.
Accident investigators have implicated the system, known as MCAS, in two deadly crashes of the jetliner that killed a total of 346 people.
The Boeing 737 Max jet is in the process of recertification, despite major technical failures in the past. equilarinc notes Boeing CEO Dennis Muilenburg earned $23,392,187 in 2018, a 38% increase from the previous year. $BA execcomp CorpGov Source:
When Boeing developed MCAS in early 2000s for usairforce it had Seattle-based software engineers on the job; for flawed Max software it outsourced the work to $8/hr developers in India & Russia.
I’m still not going on the MAX once it’s back...
but NikkiHaley is now on the board so that makes it all better.
People need to go to jail.
Don’t count on me to fly the Boing 737 Maxs when they return to service. Experts think their problems were not only of software but of design (big engines located oddly in plane?)
afalli Looks like it will only get worse
I would like to know more
Criminal!
Sue Boeing’s ass!!
& the money saved was used to pay the CEO USD 24 million in 2018? How much bonus will he get paid for 2019?
I have withdrawn all my money invested in Boeing, when I realised they are spending more time on training the machine than the actual human beings.
Where was the software and coding written? India?
