US Senate committee investigators believe Boeing and the US FAA tried to re-affirm controversial assumptions over pilot response times during 737 Max recertification, by pre-determining the outcome of tests on crew reactions to a runaway stabiliser.
The Senate committee on commerce, science and transportation has found that Boeing “inappropriately coached” test pilots while conducting simulator tests during recertification of the Max, after two fatal accidents involving the type.
Both accidents were linked to the MCAS software system which erroneously and repeatedly trimmed the horizontal stabiliser to push the aircraft into a nose-down attitude.
