From Boeing's statement -
"Boeing has been developing a flight control software enhancement for the 737 MAX, designed to make an already safe aircraft even safer".
Just unbelievable. For the concerned software "enhancement", the undisputed fact here is that the current MCAS can crash the aircraft when the sensor reading is wrong. Apparently, that is now considered as "already safe" by Boeing! To be honest, that is not a "software enhancement", it is an urgent fix for a life critical system.
It is also important to notice that as of writing, FAA still refuses to ground all 737 Max for a full investigation. I don't think FAA is going to be that nice towards say Airbus aircrafts. It is a pure political move aimed nothing else but to trade human lives for some cheap protectionism for its domestic companies.
340+ real people already dead, 737 Max are being grounded by more and more countries, FAA still refuses to follow to do the right thing. Shame on FAA and Boeing.
