Richard, well done for spotting the link. Boeing aircraft certified with poor safety critical software implementation.
As far as I know, the FAA didn't warn Boeing that its implementation in the 737 MAX was 'positively dangerous'; whereas the RAF was warned, in 1993. The AAIB later confirmed this status had 'not changed' at the time of the accident.
That makes the old A&AEE Boscombe Down, part of MoD(PE), more of a 'model of perfection'.
But not the RAF/Air Staff, who then made a false declaration that it WAS certified, and lied to Ministers that it was not safety critical. Nor the current Air Staff, DE&S and MAA, who have continued to vilify those who notified this.
