Boeing 737 Max problems


Recommended Posts

Interesting article in Seattle times on the problems of the Boeing 737 Max

https://www.seattletimes.com/business/boeing-aerospace/failed-certification-faa-missed-safety-issues-in-the-737-max-system-implicated-in-the-lion-air-crash/?fbclid=IwAR3tAuFBm0DLa_mu0EoSpGJqg2Vgfy2tdh8ihI8-fT5ym8dTI9DvElOTcLg

I always assumed the FAA was pretty faultless but it seems they have had to let the air plane manufactures do there own fault analysis....

Beta-testing with passengers' lives. 

But is it really a software glitch ? The 2 Pitot sensors might be giving erroneous signals but working as designed. I know enough fluid mechancs to know it is not a precise science, cannot be computed with precision in transitional flow regions.
