The first came in 2018 in Indonesia, where Lion Air pilots did not know about the flight-control software that could push the nose of the Boeing 737 Max 8 down without their input. The Lion Air crash killed 189 people. The second was in 2019 in Ethiopia, where an Ethiopian Airlines pilot knew about the software but was not able to control the plane when the software activated due to information about a faulty sensor.Boeing will plead guilty to a criminal fraud conspiracy charge from two deadly crashes of its 737 Max 8 planes that killed 346 passengers and crew, and will cough up a $243.6 million fine. The $243.6 million fine is on top of the same amount paid in 2021 under a settlement the DOJ said the company breached. Is the company “ignorant” of the passengers safety ?
