WASHINGTON - The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration had insufficient personnel to oversee the certification of new Boeing airplanes and should make significant reforms in how it approves new aircraft, an international aviation panel said Friday.
Representative Peter DeFazio, a Democrat who chairs the House Transportation Committee, said Friday, the report “raises new and disturbing questions about the separation between regulator and manufacturer.” Democratic Senators Ed Markey and Richard Blumenthal said the report confirms “our worst fears about a failed broken system of aviation safety scrutiny.”
FAA Administrator Steve Dickson said Friday the agency would respond to all recommendations in the “unvarnished” review. Boeing is revising the 737 MAX software to require the MCAS system to receive input from both Angle of Attack sensors, and has added additional safeguards. If the AOA sensors differ by 5.5 degrees or more then MCAS cannot operate.
DeFazio said, “Undue pressure may have been placed on individuals at the FAA and Boeing to get the MAX into service as quickly as possible.”
