The 63-page complaint, filed Wednesday in Illinois federal court by Anthony P. Janik, representative of pilot Yared Getachew Tessema's estate, also names software manufacturer Rockwell Collins Inc. and Rosemount Aerospace Inc. as defendants, saying the changes the three companies made to the 737 Max 8 aircraft are directly responsible for the crash.
