SINGAPORE/PARIS: Boeing Co plans to release upgraded software for its 737 MAX in a week to 10 days, sources familiar with the matter said.
The U.S. plane maker has been working on a software upgrade for an anti-stall system and pilot displays on its fastest-selling jetliner in the wake of the deadly Lion Air crash in Indonesia in October.
Similarities between the flight path in the Lion Air incident and Sunday’s Ethiopian Airlines crash have raised fresh questions about the system, but so far there is no evidence on whether the same software is again a potential issue.
