> really big indictment that out of all the complex and hard to engineer systems in an aircraft it was poor software that caused the crash While I frequently point out how bad we are as an industry at making fault tolerant code, this part is just flat wrong. The software portion of the 737, while definitely flawed in a catastrophic way, would not have came to be if the aeronautics engineers had done their job and designed a flight worthy plane without software hacks. Not to imply the aeronautics guys are the root cause either though, the 737 Max fiasco is a top to bottom completely failure of Boeing as a whole, virtually every department involved in the Max has a significant reason to share in the blame.
