In 2017, Boeing identified that the 737 Max display system software 'did not correctly meet the AOA Disagree alert requirements,' the company said in a statement.
American multinational aircraft manufacturing company Boeing knew that their 737 Max aircraft was experiencing problems months before the deadly Indonesia Lion Air crash last October but failed to disclose the issue to federal regulators until after the incident.
“The software delivered to Boeing linked the AOA Disagree alert to the AOA indicator, which is an optional feature on the MAX and the NG. Accordingly, the software activated the AOA Disagree alert only if an airline opted for the AOA indicator.” “The review concluded, the existing functionality was acceptable until the alert and the indicator could be delinked in the next planned display system software update,” Boeing said, adding that senior leaders within the company were not informed of the review and only found out about the problem “in the aftermath of the Lion Air accident.”
