US authorities said Boeing and its former leader, Dennis Muilenburg, had “put profits over people” and misled investors about the safety of its 737 MAX planes after the 2018 and 2019 crashes.
Aviation giant Boeing has agreed to pay $200 million (€203 million) to settle charges it misled investors over the safety of its 737 MAX planes, US authorities said on Thursday.
The model has come under intense criticism for years after two crashes involving the 737 MAX 8 killed 346 people. Both planes, in Indonesia and Ethiopia, had been in service for just a few months when they crashed.
