WASHINGTON, June 18 (Reuters) - US Senators on Tuesday attacked the CEO of Boeing (BAN.N) for the company's safety record and handling of the 737 MAX crashes that killed 346 people.
Tough questioning from lawmakers
Boeing CEO David Calhoun faced tough questioning from lawmakers on Tuesday about the aviation giant's safety record and the company's response to the 737 MAX crashes. Calhoun defended the company's safety record, but acknowledged that mistakes were made in the development and certification of the 737 MAX.
Senators from both parties criticized Boeing for its handling of the 737 MAX crashes and for its failure to adequately address safety concerns raised by pilots and regulators.
Calhoun said that Boeing is committed to safety and that the company is taking steps to improve its safety processes.
