FAA orders Boeing to make more changes in 737 Max to address new risk
Boeing Co. tumbled after tests on the 737 Max revealed a new safety risk, prompting US regulators to order additional design changes to the grounded jetliner.
The Federal Aviation Administration discovered that data processing by a flight computer on the jetliner could cause the plane to dive in a way that pilots had difficulty recovering from in simulator tests, according to two people familiar with the finding who asked not to be named discussing it.
“The FAA recently found a potential risk that Boeing must mitigate,” the agency said in an emailed statement Wednesday that didn’t provide specifics.
