After two crashes of Boeing’s aircraft type 737 Max 8 in less than half a year, CEO Dennis Muilenburg has so significantly as to never have problems with the control software used for granted. He praised a prompt correction of the error.
It seems according to the preliminary investigation report on the crash in Ethiopia, as if the programme due to a wrong sensor has been turned on, data is unnecessarily shared with Muilenburg on Thursday. Thus, the theory is that a software error corrected in the machine direction of the floor is supported from the top Group.
New Problem
The much-awaited MCAS found-Update will ensure that accidents such as in Ethiopia and Indonesia “will never happen again,” said Boeing chief Muilenburg. So far, the aircraft manufacturer had denied that the MCAS Software is a security risk. Shortly before Muilenburgs opinion, the group had promised, though, that pilots will in future always have the possibility of the automatic to turn off and switch to manual control.
at the same time, Boeing announced that the in the analysis of the crashes is another issue with a different Software found. This had not been noted in the Review of the controversial control program, MCAS, would be but in direct connection therewith, said Boeing in the night on Friday. Had previously reported the “Washington Post” that the U.S. aviation authority FAA have objected to the new Problem. As long as it is not solved, not to be lifted, the start prohibition for Boeing’s misfortune pilots of the Boeing 737 Max series.
Fatal consequences
especially for the fuel-efficient Max-new edition of Boeing’s 737-series, developed MCAS program is supposed to ensure, to correct in certain flight situations, such as a steep rise of Jets automatically and the flight angle. But so far, the accident reports indicate that the System has been enabled at the time of the crash due to incorrect sensor data incorrectly – with fatal consequences.
The Crash of the Lion Air in Indonesia by the end of October, the on Board computer should have pushed the nose of the Boeing 737 Max 8 because of the MCAS-malfunction automatically again and again to the bottom, while the Crew to counteract tried. A similar scenario is also applicable to the Ethiopian-Airlines-crash on 10. March as probable. A total of 346 people died in the accidents. (chk/sda)
