Boeing says the designated representatives participate in regular training and receive guidance and oversight from the FAA
Soon after Lion Air Flight 610 plummeted into the Java Sea last October, killing all 189 people aboard, Boeing Co began to point gingerly toward mistakes the airline may have made.
A preliminary report by Indonesian authorities recounted the trouble pilots had with a litany of mechanical woes. That same day, Boeing released its own summary of the findings. The aircraft maker did not draw conclusions. But it focused on other factors like potential miscues by maintenance crews and then by pilots who did not follow a check-list on the 737 Max 8 jets final flight.
