International panel to criticize U.S. FAA’s Boeing 737 MAX approval process: WSJ

As part of the panel’s findings, the task force will call out U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for what it says is a lack of clarity and transparency in the way the FAA delegated authority to Boeing to evaluate the safety of certain flight-control features, the Journal reported, adding that the final conclusion in some of these essential design changes did not receive adequate FAA attention. The panel is expected to call for greater data-sharing and transparency among different governments, WSJ reported, with the draft report recommending reviewing and updating FAA guidance and day-to-day certification procedures to ensure early and significant FAA involvement in new onboard systems. Boeing’s 737 MAX was grounded worldwide in March after two deadly crashes in Indonesia and Ethiopia within five months of each other.
