The family of an American woman killed in the crash of an Ethiopian Airlines 737 MAX filed a lawsuit on Thursday filed a lawsuit against the airline, Boeing Co and Rosemount Aerospace Inc, which makes a part of the aircraft that is the focus of investigators. Boeing's top-selling aircraft was grounded worldwide following the disaster, which came five months after a Lion Air 737 MAX crash in Indonesia that killed 189 people. Thursday's complaint accuses Boeing of putting "profits over safety" and said the US Federal Aviation Administration must also be held accountable for certifying the 737 MAX. Lawyers for Stumo's family have also filed a federal tort claim against the FAA over the Ethiopian crash. Stumo, originally from Massachusetts, is the niece of consumer activist Ralph Nader, who called for a boycott of the 737 MAX on Thursday.
