WASHINGTON - The United States will mandate that Boeing Co implement design changes by April that have been in the works for months for the 737 MAX 8 fleet after a fatal crash in October but said the plane was airworthy and did not need to be grounded after a second crash on Sunday.
Boeing did not reference Sunday’s Ethiopian Airlines crash in connection to the software upgrade. The statement did express the company’s condolences to the relatives of the 157 people who died, however. U.S. Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao told reporters regulators would not hesitate to act if they find a safety issue.
Canada’s transport minister also said he will not hesitate to act once the cause of the crash is known. The National Transportation Safety Board and the FAA are both at the crash site in Ethiopia, Chao said.
