>> would you fly on one after the soft where fixes that have been made? >> no. >> if the faa said it was safe, i think they're on notice now. so they're not going to let them back up until it's fixed. i flew on one last year before any of the problems. seemed like a nice aircraft. when they say it's good to go, i don't have a problem. >> would you fly on the 737 maxx? >> probably not. >> why? >> i don't have enough confidence in them yesterday. there's other options available fortunately. >> so that would go into your decision in purchasing a ticket? >> oh, yeah. >> that highly unscientific sa...

Do. 737 max please are stang up at the assembly plant in washington they keep building them. the company says the software fix to the anti-stall system is done and tested more than 360 hours on 207 test flights. right now regulators from the faa are submitting questions on that new software and once they and regulators from the other countries are satisfied, boeing will schedule certification test flight and once that's done will submittal the documents for final certification. the faa will be under intense scrutiny as it has taken a lot of heat for relying too much on boeing engineers and the...

Should be there as well. it's time for all aircraft manufacturers to have it displayed to the pilot, including airline manufacturers. >> so boeing will make two fixes. make sure the anti-stall system takes readings from both angles of attack sensors and make sure there's a light in the cockpit showing whether both sensors are getting the exact same readings. shep? >> shepard: there's other questions about this anti-stall system. >> the biggest question being why it wasn't included in the 737 max operational manual and why pilots were not trained on it. victims are suing boeing saying the airli...

Boeing engineers have. so they've been relying on each other for this relationship. you cannot deny aviation in this country has never been safer. the question is now, whether this relationship between boeing and the faa has gotten too cozy. that's why the department of transportation has an inspector general looking into it. there is a criminal investigation involving a grand jury looking into the process to certify the max. so all of this now has come to a head as we have the entire global fleet grounded and no maxes are flying in the united states to reminded you southwest, american, united...

Problems. the pilot asked the first officer to check for a list of abnormal events. boeing maintains there's a protocol for overriding the so many but boeing did not include the anti-stall system or the 737 max 8 manual so the pilots didn't know what to look nor. the cockpit voice recorder shows the pilots were concerned about the increasing speed and decreasing altitude. now there's questions about whether the faa failed to properly oversee the roll-out of the max 8 and gave boeing engineers too much latitude on safety decisions. it's a big deal. you'll hear a lot about it in the coming month...
