FAA Misled Congress on Inspectors' Training |
|
The
Office of Special Counsel has found that officials at the Federal Aviation
Committee misled Congress about the training its inspectors received,
including inspectors that likely oversaw the certification of the 737 Max.
Investigators determined this after examining a whistleblower complaint. The
findings are a major setback for the FAA. The organization is currently trying
to convince aviation regulators worldwide to re-certify the 737 Max, which was
grounded worldwide after fatal crashes in Indonesia and Ethiopia. The two
separate incidents killed 346 people.
