The FT has coverage too <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;on.ft.com&#x2F;33rAwSM" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;on.ft.com&#x2F;33rAwSM</a><p>With a particularly damning extract:<p>&gt; It found the company successfully persuaded the US Federal Aviation Administration not to classify the anti-stall system as “safety critical”, meaning that many pilots did not even know of its existence before flying the Max.<p>&gt; In doing so, Boeing concealed from regulators internal test data showing that if a pilot took longer than 10 seconds to recognise that the system had kicked in erroneously, the consequences would be “catastrophic”.
