According to the company, its CEO Dennis Muilenburg has participated in a test flight on a 737 MAX 7 jet in order to demonstrate the MCAS anti-stall system works properly, which was in doubt following a plane crash in Ethiopia. Boeing said on Wednesday that its updated 737 MAX software had been successfully tested. "The software update worked as designed, and the pilots landed safely at Boeing Field (near Seattle)", the plane manufacturer said in a statement. The corporation stressed that during the flight the crew had used the software in various scenarios to test failure conditions. Earlier on Wednesday, the Federal Aviation Administration announced it had launched another review to ensure the safety of the Boeing 737 MAX.
