Boeing to stop charging for safety upgrade
For aircraft manufacturers, the practice of charging to upgrade a plane is a major source of revenue. Some add-ons are aesthetic, but others involve systems that are fundamental to the plane’s operations.
After two deadly crashes involving the same jet model, Boeing will make standard a feature that it had charged for, as part of an effort to get the planes in the air again. Neither of the planes that crashed in Ethiopia and Indonesia was equipped with the feature, which is not required by regulators.
Yesterday: The Defense Department said it was investigating complaints that the acting defense secretary, Patrick Shanahan, had been promoting his former employer, Boeing, and disparaging its military contractor competitors.
Go deeper: Investigators in Indonesia described confusion and prayer in the cockpit before the Lion Air crash in October. “God is great,” the co-pilot prayed.
