Pending this reading, so are the Congress and FAA, and NTSB, and Boeing board, and the unions there and the pilots' unions, and all the otber stakeholders, particularly other regulatory agencies globally, supposed to conclude now that JATR and its report were [a] incorrect; superfluous and/or unnecessary; [c] otherwise insignificant and immaterial?
Not intending to be posting in "over-reaction", but . . . . .
I suspect that, when the background on this committee, its selection and remit are known, it will turn out that it is largely driven by the political appointees currently occupying the top echelon at DOT, people who are ideologically committed to an absolute minimum of regulation. It's not easy to imagine another reason for a report on the MAX disaster to end up suggesting even further delegation to the manufacturer.
