Boeing is planning fixes that would make its 737 MAX stall-prevention system less aggressive and easier for pilots to control

The extensive revisions, these industry and government officials said, will make the automated stall-prevention feature, called MCAS, less aggressive and more controllable by pilots.

Less aggressive? What does that mean? Can it be overridden? Always? “Easier” for the pilot? It should be foolproof.

Interesting to learn that the 2 airlines with crashes opted not to buy optional features that would aid their pilots

Why didn’t they do this to begin with

So the headline is : Boeing is planning to correct its stall-prevention system so it won’t crash the airplane even with the pilots desperately trying to save the passengers. 737MAX $BA TRMX

About time!

Didn’t trump just say there was nothing wrong with these planes? Didn’t the leader of Boeing just say there is nothing wrong with these planes? So why are fixes needed if nothing is wrong? I’ll never trust Boeing again.

Why didn’t this happen after crash 1? This should require significant testing with outside oversight.

But I think many people from every counties do not want take again. SAFE first!!!

Lemme get like 3 lol

Hope this will suggest something to nytimes, it’s not all about the training or profile of the flyethiopian pilots after all, boeing is doing the needful to correct their failures... sad lives have to be lost before this.

I am not getting on that plane. I don't any corporation to put human lives above profits. Especially with the over deregulation of the Trump administration.

Cancel & recall.....these planes are toast, Boeing should be in the dock big time. I agree some posters saying “ who would knowingly ever fly on one of these planes”. Such utter stupidity by Boeing & FAA definitely big part of why this happend. Nobody will buy or fly the Max

How nice of Boeing now that 300+ people are dead and families are destroyed by their corporate greed, mismanagement, arrogance, ...

well I know nothing about planes so if the pros says it's fixed, I have no choice but to mindlessly believe them. Hey were all gone die anyways.

Not buying it. Thanks but no!!!!

And don't forget to tell them where the switch is this time.

Stall prevention system is a fail. They didn't have this lousy technology in the past. Are the pilots now so poorly trained they need this nonsense.

After so many deaths ... even the pilots didn’t understand what was happening ...

After killing hundreds passenger.

Wow this is in 2019, keep it simple stupid! Learned KISS!

They should redo entirely and possibly recast or rebrand...’cos I’m never ever flying in 737 Maxs regardless!!!

Should of been done in the first place my be they should actually test fly there jets before the go to market then Computer simulations. But they better off building a new jet cause the rep has already hurt the 737 Max.

Why don’t they give the human being professional pilot total control over the aircraft, it’s airspeed, roll pitch and yaw? A system of sensors and idiot lights is fine for an Audi. Take 300 people to FL 36 demands AVIATION TRIED AND TRUE! STOP PLAYING AROUND WITH OUR LIVES W TECH

This airplane will be tainted for a long time.

Boeing is headed a lot lower

Nah I will pass

Try getting Joe public on one of those planes. 😱

Finally

Excellent news. The question is why are the managers who blocked any pro-active measures still in office. They are the worst managers in modern history and they are destroying shareholder value and jobs in Seattle and Chicago.

Who wants to fly that plane ever again? 737MAX. I will not book a flight with that plane ever.

How thoughtful of them.
