Paul Hudson has been skeptical of the FAA’s order lifting the grounding of Boeing’s 737 Max since that day last month when the agency cleared the aircraft to once again carry passengers in the US. Hudson, president of FlyersRights.org, is one of four plaintiffs named in an action before the DC Circuit Court of Appeals to challenge the FAA’s decision to allow the aircraft to fly once again.
FlyersRights Appeals the FAA’s 737 Max Ungrounding Decision
Key Takeaways:
- Paul Hudson, president of FlyersRights.org, and other plaintiffs are challenging the FAA's decision to unground the Boeing 737 Max in the DC Circuit Court of Appeals.
- Their skepticism stems from the FAA and Boeing's repeated prior declarations of the Max's safety before crashes, and the current ungrounding being based on undisclosed data and testing, with alleged inadequate pilot retraining.
- Critics, including congressional committees, highlight a significant lack of transparency and cooperation from Boeing and the FAA regarding key documents and technical fixes for the aircraft, with FlyersRights' FOIA requests yielding heavily redacted information.
