Embattled aviation giant Boeing pledged Wednesday to do all it can to prevent crashes like the two that killed nearly 350 people in recent months, as it unveiled a fix to the flight software of its grounded 737 MAX aircraft. "We are going to do everything to make sure that accidents like this don't happen again," Mike Sinnett, Boeing's vice president of product strategy, told reporters. "The certification process was detailed and thorough," but "time yields more data," Elwell was to tell senators.He acknowledged that as systems become more complex, the FAA's "oversight approach needs to evolve. "The FAA chief also was to reassure senators that regulators will not rush the MAX back into the skies. "The 737 MAX will return to service for US carriers and in US airspace only when the FAA's analysis of the facts and technical data indicate that it is appropriate," Elwell was to say.
