Can you provide evidence the FAA lacks sufficient expertise?

  It is unclear if they are lacking technical expertise, but they are certainly being significantly more lax than one would want a regulatory body to be. https://www.npr.org/2019/04/04/709431845/faa-is-not-alone-in-allowing-industry-to-self-regulate https://www.npr.org/2019/04/04/709431845/faa-is-not-alone-in...

    You must be joking if you think the FAA technical staff have the software tools and expertise to the level of Boeing's engineering organization.

  There is a whistleblower claiming this very thing. https://www.cnbc.com/2019/04/02/senate-panel-probes-whistleblower-claims-of-poor-faa-training-on-boeing-737-max.html https://www.cnbc.com/2019/04/02/senate-panel-probes-whistleb... Claims aren't evidence. But testimony is evidence. How compelling that is depends on their credibility, qualifications, and whether there's corroborating evidence.

  The existence of 737 max is not enough?
