 US pilots raised fears about Boeing 737 Max

 
WASHINGTON 15 May (ANA) - American Airlines pilots confronted Boeing about concerns regarding the Boeing 737 Max, the model that crashed in Ethiopia on March 10, US media has reported.
 
A meeting took place in November last year following a crash in Indonesia that killed 189 people.
 
Pilots said they hadn't been fully informed about the new anti-stall system, which investigators say may have caused the crashes.
 
Boeing promised to make changes to software but this was still in progress when the Ethiopian Airlines plane crashed and killed all 157 people on board.
 
The 737 Max is currently grounded worldwide.(ANA)
