FAA Finds Boeing 737 Max Software Glitch Poses No Safety Risk, Certification Advances
The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) determined that a software glitch in Boeing 737 Max aircraft does not pose a safety risk, allowing certification of the delayed 737 Max 10 variant to proceed. The issue arises during aborted landings, shifting autopilot to simpler pitch control and increasing pilot workload, but pilots retain full manual control. Boeing and airlines, including Akasa Air, affirm fleet safety and ongoing collaboration with regulators. Boeing is developing a software update to address the glitch.
