Boeing 737 MAX: Manufacturer rolls out software fix but claims it is nothing to do with Ethiopia crash

Boeing says it has developed software fixes for an automated flight-control system on its 737 airliners that is under scrutiny after two deadly crashes in five months. The aircraft manufacturer is under pressure from victims’ families, airlines, US politicians and regulators worldwide to prove the automated systems aboard its 737 MAX aircraft are safe and pilots have the training required to override the system in an emergency. Earlier this month, 157 people were killed when a 737 MAX jet of Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 crashed minutes after take-off.
