WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on the Ethiopian Airlines crash (all times local):9:30 p.m.Boeing’s CEO says the airliner maker is taking actions to ensure the safety of its 737 Max jets in the wake of two crashes that killed 346 people. The planes’ new flight-control software is suspected of playing a role in the crashes. Muilenburg says Boeing representatives are supporting the investigation into the cause of last week’s crash of an Ethiopian Airlines Max 8 that killed 157. The Justice Department probe will examine the way Boeing was regulated by the Federal Aviation Administration, said the person, who asked not to be identified because the inquiry is not public. A federal grand jury in Washington sent a subpoena to someone involved in the plane’s development seeking emails, messages and other communications, the person told The Associated Press.
