Aircraft manufacturer Boeing has moved the software changes for the 737 MAX is unveiled. It is mainly to adjustments in the vluchtsysteem. That corrects automatically when the unit is quickly on the rise and ‘stall’ is likely to occur. With the software changes, it hopes the U.s. manufacturer confidence in the aircraft to recover after two crashes with 346 deaths.
The software changes, which two weeks ago were announced, to prevent erroneous data the so-called anti-stall system in the 737 MAX activate. This system, press the nose of an airplane down as soon as the unit covered is likely to be. That happens to be the pilot, the rudder is too far back pulls, making the wings their lift mostly lose. Without intervention, the unit will quickly bags or even uncontrolled down a deposit.

The system seems to have the Boeing 737 MAX is not good to have functioned. The anti-overtreksysteem was questioned after the accident with Lion Air and Ethiopian Airlines, in October and march. The system would be the nose of the Lion Air aircraft in October in Indonesia shortly after takeoff into the sea, crashed, several times down, have printed. The Boeing would be with nearly 600 kilometers per hour from the air. The 189 occupants were killed. the
Supposedly, the system was also the cause of the crash with the Boeing 737 MAX of Ethiopian Airlines, the beginning of march. The plane crashed also immediately after the take-down. The pilot had to luchtverkeerscentrale reported that there were problems. The rampvliegtuig had after the take off from the airport of Addis Ababa is an unusually high speed, said an Ethiopian official that the recordings from the air traffic control heard.
Therefore, there are changes. According to the head of the department product strategy of Boeing to press the anti-overtreksysteem the vliegtuigneus now but once down after a problem is detected. That gives pilots more control and more freedom for the vluchtsysteem to work. “The system will also be disabled if two luchtstroomsensoren that the most important flight data measurement, with very different measurements come,” said Mike Sinnett this afternoon during a press conference at the Boeing plant in Renton in the state of Washington, where the 737 MAX will be built.
Previous complaints
five pilots complained earlier in the US already have problems with the controls of a Boeing 737 MAX 8 during crucial moments in the air. Some of these difficulties were similar to the probable cause of the crash of the Lion Air aircraft. The American pilots had to say struggling to the nose of the aircraft in the right direction to keep by problems with the anti-stall system. One of the captains reported that the nose of his device within a few seconds, so quickly down went the alarm went off.
