The Federal Aviation Administration, already under the gun for how it has handled the growing controversy surrounding the Boeing 737 Max, says reviewing a possible software fix for the grounded airplanes is"an agency priority."
In an update to industry guidance called the Continued Airworthiness Notification to the International Community, or CANIC, the FAA said: Boeing is hoping to have the new software finalized by March 25, according to a person familiar with the matter, but it will not issue the updated software to airlines until it's been approved by the FAA. Separately, it's unclear if the new software and updated training for 737 Max flight crews will be enough to prompt the agency to lift the grounding of the Boeing jets.
"Understanding the circumstances that contributed to this accident is critical in developing further actions and returning aircraft to service," the FAA said in its updated CANIC.
If FAA allows 737 Max to flight with a software fix, I am afraid there will be more planes to crash.
How do they “fix” the 300 people who died as a result of their greed to rush out a product that was faulty?
