22737 Unreliable airspeed version 25 .pdf

25This is the latest draft; however, we are far from validating this as the final version of the Airspeed Unreliable
26checklist.

29As I pointed out in the telecon today, an introduction of synthetic airspeed to the MAX would drastically alter this
30Critical Action, Memory Item Non-Normal Checklist. If synthetic airspeed is standard as opposed to an option, it
31would likely jeopardize the Program directive to maintain Level B training for our customers.

43I was on the MAX Systems SAM call today, to listen to the proposal for the new l-ADIRU for the MAX, and
44synthetic airspeed was brought up. First I had heard of it, so I mentioned the above to the group.

90Do you have a copy of what the 737’s Airspeed Unreliable checklist will be as a result of the SRP? I don’t think
91I’ve seen that one yet.
92
93
94It will be a challenge to implement synthetic airspeed on the 737, particularly since it doesn’t have
95implementation will need to be different from the 787.

127Hi all,
128
129Here are the demographics questions that I plan to start the debrief with. This is considered the minimum set, and
130I plan to follow up for more details on their answers, depending on what they say.
131
132The first document shows an outline of what questions are to be asked of each condition. For the no-RCAS
133condition, we plan on showing them details of RCAS after their flight and ask about their perceptions of its design
134and intended function.
135
136
137The doc marked Boeing Only has questions that we plan to ask of the no-RCAS group about their expectations for
138any alerting that they feel might have helped in the events. It is Boeing Only because the answers they provide
139might show a significant deviation from the current RCAS design, and we don’t want to indicate to the FAA that our
140design conflicts with pilot expectations (esp since the pilot responses are naive and our design has been vetted in
141a number of demos).
142
143
144Let me k now of any additional questions you think should be asked,

173Probably true, but it’s the box we’re painted into with the Level B training requirements. Remember, this is just the
174manufacturer’s min training required. Operators can elect to make the training more robust.
175
176A bad excuse, but what I’m being pressured into complying with.

229Doesn’t help our strategy with Level B, and the ROLL/YAW ASYMETRY will most likely be seen frequently during
230engine out operations as people don’t have the plane in trim when coupling the autopilot and make speed/config
231changes. The path forward we determined in fit tech was to only have a condition statement, with the training
232pointing the crews to the FCTM guidance regarding proper trim technique. This is the path with the least risk to
233Level B . We need to sell this as very intuitive basic pilot skill. That the alert is just drawing your attention to the
234mistrim condition. That’s our only chance of Level B.

267I would think that the NNCs should provide some guidance to the pilots. Many will need to be told to enter rudder
268trim or aileron input to correct the condition of which they have been informed.

280Here’s the RCAS NNCs. Let me know if you need them cleaned up to look exactly as they will in the QRH.
281
282We’re a month or so away from the FCOM maneuvers guidance, if we give any. Still need to sort that out.
283
284We need to point out that the autopilot saturation alerts means you should do trim the airplane per the FCTM
285guidance.
286
287For the roll arrow, I think we just include it as systems information, it won’t be part of the upset recovery just an
288extra tool to do it correctly.

345If I get your guys the 2 checklists for autopilot saturation (ROLL/YAW ASYMMETRY and ROLL AUTHORITY),
346and the FCTM guidance we expect pilots to know for use of rudder/aileron trim, and you get access to the NG
347CAB with that functionality, what is the shortest possible time from both of those happening that a basic version of
348the CBT could be produced for use in a human factors study/evaluation of the effectiveness of the training? It
349doesn’t have to be perfect, but fairly representative of the training we expect to provide for these 2 alerts.
350
351I’m ramping up the engineers and human factors folks to do a study to prove to the FAA that no greater than level
352B is needed for RCAS. We already have the data for the roll arrow, just need these 2 other pieces of RCAS.
353
354Please let me know ASAP.

512After listening in on the discussion with TD and the larger team, I am fine with the path their on. Everyone
513acknowledged there is some risk to the new style of training, but it shouldn’t be a show stopper. My concerns with
514the flat panel trainer are alleviated, only by the fact that they must develop some sort of device for the full transition
515course. As that is unavoidable, it is a risk we must live with for level B differences course for NG to MAX.

573around them building some sort of flat panel trainer for the full transition course, we’ll just have to accept the^isk of

652
653
654.: wanted me to coordinate with you and make sure you’re ok with me highlighting my concerns with
655
656regards to Training Development’s desired plan for Code 1 customer MAX training. I believe [ZZZZZZZ1has
657already shared my concerns with you, but I want to make sure you are ok with me bringing them up at next
658Wednesday’s meeting to discuss this topic.
659
660
661My concerns are two-fold.
662
663
664First, I have concerns with moving away from a predominantly CBT-based training course, which has been the
665Boeing standard for many years, back to an Instructor-led course. While I agree with this in principle, the fact is,
666we’re dealing with new regulators in both the AEG and the Miami TCPM offices, so attempting to certify the MAX
667course for initial type certification carries with it unnecessary risk. The AEG in particular has been very difficult to
668deal with thus far as you know.
669
6709
671
672Second, I am concerned with the development of these DTTs for the training. I know; ! is selling these as only
673required for the Code 1 full transition course, but I fear the old Field of Dreams adage of, Tf you build it, they will
674comeâ€. In other words, I fear the AEG will find out we have these great interactive desk top trainers and try and
675
676
677mandate them for use in the NG to MAX differences course, which we have a contractual obligation to: jto
678
679ensure the training does not exceed greater than 2 days of Level B (CBT) differences training. While this argument
680has no logical basis from the AEG’s perspective, thus far in our negotiations we have seen many instances where
681logic and reason do not prevail with the AEG.
682
683
684I intend on raising this with the group at next Wednesday’s meeting, unless you would like me to stay silent on the
685topic. I realize the training development is outside my swim lane, but it certainly can impact my negotiations with
686the regulators.

719The “footprint†will be less than 4 hours. We don’t define times in the FSB, only the training level. The FSB is
720being developed in the near future. There is a new FSB format, and we’ll be working collaboratively with the
721AEG to re-write it, to include incorporation of the MAX into it. The draft won’t be ready until after type cert in the
722Oct time frame. We expect the comment period and everything to be done by the end of the year.
723
724EASA has accepted the FAA/TCCA’s findings, so the EASA requirement will be the same, as written into their
725OSD report. The CAAC has already said they’ll accept the FAA’s findings. We’ll probably have to go to other
726regulators around the world to jedi-mind trick them into accepting the FSB findings, but that shouldn't be hard.

782The training is running under 3 hours. We will make some minor tweaks to it, but not enough to bust through 3
783hours (call it less than 4 if you want to be conservative). No special currency issues or formal checks of any sort
784were identified by the regulators. That’s the whole point of Level B.

832Hey f \
833
834RIGHT ON!! So the devil is in the details: Do we have 1-day of CBT endorsed and in stone by FAA (AEG)?
835And, just to confirm, there are absolutely no formal checks? And, no functional currency issues between NG
836and MAX ... you can be away from an NG for 30-years and still be able to jump into a MAX? LOVE IT!!
837
838Yep, those are the details us product marketing twits need to know! LOL.
839
840CONGRATS to you and your MAX team. I 1 . .. I remember us 757-300, 767-400, and 777-200LR team bros
841from flight training, technical, & standards (as we were called in those days) went out and got really DRUNK
842when the FAA had come down with their provisional approvals. Call me if you bros need cabs tonight!! Haha.
843
844THEN, we got really DRUNK when the JAA (now EASA) approvals came in!!
845
846GOOD on you all!!
847

969Importance: High
970All,
971
972
973I’m happy to inform you that we successfully passed the T-3 Differences Training Validation Flight today,
974establishing the 737MAX as the same type rating as the 737NG, and requiring no greater than Level B
975(Computer Based Training, CBT) differences training between the two!
976
977This is provisional approval, pending final Part 25 Type Certification, and assuming no significant systems
978changes to the airplane. The FAA will be sending us a Provisional Approval letter within the next 2 weeks,
979documenting the Joint Flight Operations Evaluation Board acceptance of this finding. FAA, Transport Canada,
980and EASA are now considered to have accepted this Level B determination.
981
982
983This culminates more than 3 years of tireless and collaborative efforts across many business units. Flight
984Technical, Flight Technical Data, Training Development, Flight Deck Crew Ops, All MAX engineering teams,
985
986
987Flight Test Engineering and of course
988their efforts in getting us to the finish line.
989
990
991j’s Engineering Test Pilot team all should be commended for

993
994CAS Communications and 737 Program Communications are jointly crafting a BNN article to be released upon
995receipt of the FAA’s provisional approval letter.

1162several people on the distribution list fromP17j' s emc| ik and he asked everyone review it, but does it make

1219I have reviewed and made comments in the attached copy of the draft, some of which should address the
1220CS-AWO 2.5% gradient implication that I l and I realized earlier today. We still have some other people
1221needing to review it, so this isn't necessarily a final Aero markup. It might help to accept most of the large
1222changes and send a new draft out for everyone to review, as I think we are all OK with the main points of the
1223FOTB and are trying to focus on the details at this point. And they are a bit hard to see in this current markup
1224form.

1330
1331Another note from my perspective after a recent chat with!
1332
1333
1334What might not be clear here is what OPT is actually checking with our go-around check on the enroute landing
1335page. The go-around check is an optional one that was implemented to satisfy the EU-OPS (once again renamed
1336to some other name I can’t remember right now) requirement that operators ensure that airplanes can meet a
1337minimum of 2.5% go-around gradient or a higher value if published by the airport authorities. This option sits on
1338top of the already existing check of approach and landing climb limits and, as you can imagine, is more limiting.
1339Note that this would mainly affect those operators that have adopted EU-OPS requirements, but note that we
1340most likely have some FAA operators also using this check, as it’s the only way then can check go-around
1341performance at those airports that are more challenging.
1342
1343
1344For those operators that elect not to implement the go-around check, they would unaffected by the above
1345go-around issue, but would still have their normal approach and landing climb limits checked.

1440Ok, latest and greatest iteration of the RTL FOTB, based on what I understand^_ihave all
1441
1442agreed to, based on Flight Technical’s recommendations. It assumes that we eiect to hold off on publishing this (at
1443least with EASA MAX customers) until we have both the 15/1 and 30/5 SPs approved with EASA. If we decide we
1444need to get it to EASA customers sooner, we can revisit and edit this as needed (i.e. remove reference to the 30/5
1445procedure until we get that approved, or maybe send out 2 separate FOTBs, one for EASA, one for everyone
1446else).
1447
1448I have many comments/questions that need reviewed/answered, and please do review the deletions and additions
1449and let me know what if any you disagree with. Please everyone in the TO and CC line do this review.
1450
1451I’ll let!' Idetermine when he wants to have this review done by. Obviously the sooner the better.

1658Funny you ask. I have not submitted a -10 787 FSB report yet. I will not do that until they publish the rewrite one
1659first. I do not want to muddy the waters what we are “negotiating" about. I am keeping a record of the many hours
1660spent dealing with a simple template revision. When I submit the -10 report it will not have a new DT. I will hold
1661tight to that until told otherwise.

1757They are on the hook for making the training level determination for each new sub-model. Usually they require us to
1758give them the proposed differences training, then go fly the airplane to prove to themselves the minimum training
1759we propose is acceptable IAW AC 120-53B. I was able to jedi mind trick them that there is enough commonality
1760with the -8, and the -800 BBJ, that they could just do the -8 BBJ by analysis. Same for EASA and TCCA. It’s all
1761good! J

1884All that was correct. The training is the important thing, and that it is on at least one of their NGs, this establishes
1885there isn’t a difference between what they’re trained for on the NG and the MAX, regardless of how many NGs
1886have the system. I know it sounds hokie, but that’s the game we have to play with the regulators.

1926
1927So CBT is planned for in 2016 for NG pilots taking 737 MAX in 2017 to eliminate differences training, correct?
1928
1929Why only 1 NG is required for RCAS active and not an entire in-service NG fleet before taking their 1 st MAX with
1930RCAS?

1965The point of that bullet is that we need to have retrofit available, and preferably free, to get our customers to take
1966the option as soon as possible. Realize the only real time constrained NG operators are those with 2017 MAX
1967deliveries, as they’ll need all of 2016 to get their pilots trained on RCAS prior to turning the system on, on at least
1968one of their NGs, in early 2017 ahead of their first MAX delivery. So whether they take it in production or retrofit,
1969they can’t turn it on until their pilots are all trained.

1993
1994However, it does bring up scheduling concerns with the statement that all MAX/NG customers need to be trained to
1995avoid differences and some customers will not be getting an NG delivery after RCAS certification.
1996
1997I do not have any follow on slides to address any schedule impact questions for retrofit that might be posed.
1998
1999Is there a schedule challenge for retrofit?

2102
2103
2104I want to stress the importance of holding firm that there will not be any type of simulator training required to
2105transition from NG to MAX. Boeing will not allow that to happen. We’ll go face to face with any regulator who tries
2106to make that a requirement. If a particular customer wants to add additional training due to concerns with their
2107particular experience level of their pilot group, then that is an internal issue to that airline. But in actuality that
2108additional training should be limited to perhaps requiring the first officers first flight on the MAX to be with a captain
2109
2110who’s already flown it once, or maybe like what I i is doing, j_iis requiring their new hire first officers to
2111
2112get 100 hours on the NG after they’re type rated before they have them take the MAX differences CBT and start
2113flying the MAX with the NG. Those are both reasonable options that are based on an airline’s internal issues . NOT
2114that the MAX is so different from the NG. To be offering this airplane with any other training requirement other than
2115the approved CBT is doing a disservice to the MAX.

2144I think we should hold firm at $0.
2145
2146Let’s keep offering to broker a meeting between our Flight Tech group <1 land co) and TTCAA, to get
2147
2148them on board with the guidance from the FAA (ie. no Check needed).
2149
2150FAA is pretty powerful and most countries defer to what the FAA does (except for the National Authorities that are
2151stuck in the stone ages. Eg. JCAB, ANAC)

2179The only risk is that they will ask us to provide financial support to cover the worse case scenario... As you know,

2200It’s probably a good idea to provide a cost range, as we do not know how the regulatory discussions will turn out.
2201
2202
2203On the low end: [_jcrew sets training at home with CBT {no Check required).

2205On the medium end jZjcrew sets training at MIA with CBT (no Check required). { ]
2206
2207On the high end: [......jcrews training on CBT for one day in MIA. Then one day in the FFS (4 hours) for a

2209“proficiency check†in the device: f ]
2210
2211
2212This is a “worst case†as Level B training doesn't require a “check ride" but regulators can be quite conservative.

2278
2279The NG to MAX course is 2 Hours... they can train in their own base and not require a “Sim Session†in
2280MIA. I got confirmation from HU that the course is only 2 hours. There’s no need to allocate “2 days
2281duration†of hotel+perdiem for offline time.
2282
2283We’re almost at the point we can say it will be zero dollars in crew salary cost for offline time. If they want
2284us to do the math for them, I’d need to know how much their daily crew hourly cost is. and I’ll multiply that
2285$xxx/HR x2 hours x[ I pilots.

2504Thank you for the call. I have attached the technical and operational differences presentations here for your team.
2505Please keep in mind that the supplementary and non-normal procedure differences are considered Level A, or
2506Handout differences only, as they are read-and-do procedural differences. I would be happy to present these
2507briefings to your team if you would like, or you can review them and if you have any questions please do not
2508hesitate to ask.
2509
2510Rather than require a simulator event, you may want to consider what other airlines have thought about, such as
2511requiring a minimum hours requirement on the 737NG before doing the MAX differences training, or perhaps
2512requiring the first flight on the MAX be with another pilot who has already flown it. I believe, based on other
2513operator inputs, that you will find any of these solutions to be acceptable. A simulator training requirement would
2514be quite burdensome to your operation.
2515
2516
2517I look forward to working with your team as you prepare to bring the 737 MAX into your operation.

2606There is absolutely no reason to require your pilots to require a MAX simulator to begin flying the MAX. Once the
2607engines are started, there is only one difference between NG and MAX procedurally, and that is that there is no
2608OFF position of the gear handle. Boeing does not understand what is to be gained by a 3 hour simulator session,
2609when the procedures are essentially the same.
2610
2611Perhaps we should discuss at your earliest opportunity. The FAA, EASA, Transport Canada, China, Malaysia, and
2612Argentinia authorities have all accepted the CBT requirement as the only training needed to begin flying the MAX.
2613I’d be happy to share the operational differences presentation with you, to help you understand that a MAX
2614simulator is both impractical and unnecessary for your pilots.
2615
2616Please let me know when would be the best time to have a webex discussion.

2946Unfortunately , we need the trade study to authorize work for us to figure out what the recommended presentation
2947would be. The goal of course would be to keep differences training to a minimum, but without a format we can
2948only speculate.
2949
2950
2951Using source selection switches would simplify the implementation logic by relying on the crew to select synthetic
2952airspeed when flagged, but that drives changes to the non-memory items in the NNC and would be more difficult to
2953retrofit.
2954
2955But we’ll definitely be asking for your input as we go do that work.

2998This is the latest draft; however, we are far from validating this as the final version of the Airspeed Unreliable
2999checklist.
3000
3001
3002As I pointed out in the telecon today, an introduction of synthetic airspeed to the MAX would drastically alter this
3003Critical Action, Memory Item Non-Normal Checklist. If synthetic airspeed is standard as opposed to an option, it
3004would likely jeopardize the Program directive to maintain Level B training for our customers.
3005
3006
3007I’ve included
3008
3009
3010who is the lead Tech Pilot for the MAX.
3011
3012
3013I was on the MAX Systems SAM call today, to listen to the proposal for the new l-ADIRU for the MAX, and
3014synthetic airspeed was brought up. First I had heard of it, so I mentioned the above to the group.

3039Do you have a copy of what the 737’s Airspeed Unreliable checklist will be as a result of the SRP? I don’t think
3040I’ve seen that one yet.
3041
3042It will be a challenge to implement synthetic airspeed on the 737, particularly since it doesn’t have! iso the
3043
3044implementation will need to be different from the 787.

3990they are going to tweak the elevator effectiveness a little. Yeah we talked about using a reasonable eg to make it doable

3993[ "j[8:03 AM]:
3994
3995ultimately you have to have it trimmed up pretty well when you start your appr descent, and the thrust coupling is way
3996more effective than the DLC, at least that's what I found
3997you of course have to pretty much disregard your airspeed :)

4050I started thinking last night, what if we mandated the training in the NG starting in 2016, so everyone was trained on it
4051ahead of MAX, (like RCAS)?
4052
4053if there real concern is being trained on it in general, than it should be sufficient to get everyone trained on the NG
4054the theorv agajn.being if you can do it in the NG, you can do it on the MAX
4055
4056| [8:15 AM]:
4057
4058
4059agree that is the risk, j jwell understands that. One reason the proposed sequence includes a normal FI 5 as a warm
4060
4061up and the scenario builds from there. Mandate training jammed elev? Not a bad idea if you like practicing bleeding. We
4062can recommend adding that into 2016 recurrent, but that would be admitting the difficulty of flying it in a model that has
4063already been certified

4145
4146FYI,
4147
4148From the MAX recurring meeting:
4149
4150Amber ANTI-ICE annunciator panel light illuminating in flight without a known cause.
4151
4152o Looking to add an additional camera to capture overhead panel lights to track reason
4153o Could take time to get camera
4154o Joined meeting late so no more information.
4155
4156Amber ENG ANTI-ICE light latching on battery starts
4157o Also latches on standby power if inflight
4158
4159ECS would like to increase the time the amber L/R VALVE WAI light can remain illuminated before setting
4160the MC light
4161
4162o This is to reduce a lot of the nuisance alerts that are being seen in flight tests
4163Amber COWL ANTI-ICE light illumination when engine thrust is suddenly increased.
4164o E xample descent followed by level off when EAI is on
4165
4166[_land j [expressed a BIG CONCERN that all of the small changes are really starting to add up.
4167
4168o Could be a threat to level B
4169
4170o A lot of small changes in systems that where not supposed to have any changes from NG
4171§ Electrical - 3 or so second delay to engage generators after start
4172§ Longer transition times in EAI/WAI valves
4173§ Longer engine start times
4174§ Etc.
4175
4176o T l and f [ would like to start a list of all of the changes, big and small.
4177
4178§ I will start working on this list. Will send around internally to compile and then will send to the
4179pi lots f o r co m ments.

4411The MCP LOCKUP NNC is only in the j

4414COC book, no other operators get this NNC.
4415
4416
4417I don’t see that we need to justify whether or not it complies with our definition of troubleshooting.
4418This is in their book by COC, not by NTO. We didn’t approve the checklist, just published it.
4419
4420
4421I looked through my archives and don’t see any discussion other than documentation in 2005 of inflight service
4422experience.
4423
4424We do have a FOTB, attached, that directs to cycle the FD switches. That same content is in the FCTM.

4494I am the APM for the B-737-800 fleet at the; :CMO. In coordination with the Seattle AEG for the past 11
4495years, I have been involved in the approval process on several versions of the! ;QRH.
4496
4497Prior to 2014,:
4498
4499
4500had their own stylized QRH, which provided Non-Normal procedures on the right-hand 7 page,
4501and detailed instructions and information for the crew, on the facing page. This QRH was in use f o r many years’
4502even prior to my a rrival at this C MO in 2006. In 2008, at the POI’s request, another A PM, i ! and I
4503
4504met with Inspector! J B-737 AEG. Inspector f 'c onducted a review of thf* pRHs and
4505
4506provided an e-mail on his findings. This e-mail and samples of that stylized QRH are cortfafriecfln attachment #1.
4507
4508
4509In 2014,
4510
4511
4512| petitioned the SEA B-737 AEG,
4513
4514
4515for approval to use the Boeing QR H and Quick
4516
4517
4518Reference Cards (QRC). This request was also approvecfTTiowever, due to the incapability between i
4519
4520
4521heeds
4522
4523
4524and the rigid Boeing publication schedule,
4525
4526
4527is now printing their own QRHs, but continuing to fohowtfie
4528
4529
4530Boeing procedures and format. Attachment'#? contains the current QRH version.
4531
4532
4533The B-737NG MCP LOCKUP procedure directs the crew to pull and reset selected circuit breakers on the P-6 and
4534P-18 panels. Discussion within the office made us question whether there was any conflict between this QRH
4535procedure and the general Boeing guidance that directs crews to avoid t rou ble shoo t ing . Thisj |QRH
4536
4537
4538procedure has been approved for many years, and it is the opinion ofj_land the B-737 APMs in
4539
4540this office, that the procedure remains acceptable. Would you please provide us your concurrence on this matter
4541so that! jan continue use of this non-normal procedure?

4583
4584‘ Pleas e seeemail I sent to[ jyesterday. We had a good phone conversation. I am concerned that if
4585
4586j jchooses to require'a M’AX'sTmuiator for its pilots beyond what all other regulators are requiring that it will
4587
4588Wcreating a difficult and unnecessary training burden for your airline, as well as potentially establish a precedent in
4589your region for other MAX customers. I have suggested some alternatives to requiring a MAX simulator below.
4590Please review with your team and let me know if you would like to discuss further. I also attached a few
4591presentations showing just how similar the MAX is to the NG.

4609
4610Thank you for the call. I have attached the technical and operational differences presentations here for your team.
4611Please keep in mind that the supplementary and non-normal procedure differences are considered Level A, or
4612Handout differences only, as they are read-and-do procedural differences. I would be happy to present these
4613briefings to your team if you would like, or you can review them and if you have any questions please do not
4614hesitate to ask.
4615
4616Rather than require a simulator event, you may want to consider what other airlines have thought about, such as
4617requiring a minimum hours requirement on the 737NG before doing the MAX differences training, or perhaps
4618requiring the first flight on the MAX be with another pilot who has already flown it. I believe, based on other
4619operator inputs, that you will find any of these solutions to be acceptable. A simulator training requirement would be
4620quite burdensome to your operation.
4621
4622I look forward to working with your team as you prepare to bring the 737 MAX into your operation.

4680There is absolutely no reason to require your pilots to require a MAX simulator to begin flying the MAX. Once the
4681engines are started, there is only one difference between NG and MAX procedural^, and that is that there is no
4682OFF position of the gear handle. Boeing does not understand what is to be gained by a 3 hour simulator session,
4683when the procedures are essentially the same.
4684
4685Perhaps we should discuss at your earliest opportunity. The FAA, EASA, Transport Canada, China, Malaysia, and
4686Argentinia authorities have all accepted the CBT requirement as the only training needed to begin flying the MAX.
4687I’d be happy to share the operational differences presentation with you, to help you understand that a MAX
4688simulator is both impractical and unnecessary for your pilots.
4689
4690Please let me know when would be the best time to have a webex discussion.

4991
4992The only reason we just about scraped through to a yes vote is because of YOUR work. And hugely because of
4993tireless work
4994
4995The sim group has created a culture of "good enough"
4996
4997And that is an incredibly low bar.

5037I really like \ |as a person. But to say that using the AMM was very in depth testing??? WTF. The AMM only describes
5038how the system works. What is the benefit to coding the software to a different behavior that the actual system and
5039AMM?
5040
5041
5042It's a culture issue. It takes 5-12 years (ish) to change culture. Better not waste any time making changes.

5061I have used the words "misleading" and "mischaracterization†a lot over the last two years in relation to his program. I
5062could be even more honest as use other synonyms that even better describe what has been going on.

5144! 19:58 AM:
5145
5146In summary, no go for the following from my opinion:
5147
5148Number of oustanding DRs - quantity touching almost every aircraft system. Failure to meet targets, duration of open DR that
5149demonstrate slow rate of closure, ECDs for certain systems being pushed to late 2018 or 2019
5150
5151Unknowns -
5152
5153Tiller control loading - requires another sofware update to an already froxen load and the best it does it restore the tiller to the known
5154underperfoming state
5155
5156Air conditioning - now compromising sound QTGs - these tests form one of the two critical elements of the Level D update
5157Model crash, EGPWS TERR FAIL or major model overrun
5158Visual - models, aliasing, and lens movement
5159
5160QTG issues - FAA have raised concerns over the resource data for 1 b3 and provided a list containing other failures
5161Resource Constraints - do all parties have sufficient resources going forward to prioritize Boeing issues?

5181
5182Nunn ber of oustanding DRs - quantity touching almost every aircraft system Failure to meet targets, duration of open DR that
5183demonstrate slow rate of closure, ECDs for certain systems being pushed to late 2018 or 2019

5196

5198
5199All the time the sound / tiller are being worked Is time that the TRU QTG specialist Is not resolving QTG issues
5200
5201Training - IPSS indicates no training scheduled on this device for some time so what is driving the requirement at this time?

6662Does the last sentance that I added make any sense?
6663
6664CRZ DES provides the means of initiating step descents to a new cruise altitude during cruise.
6665
6666During VNAV operation, execution initiates a descent at 1,000 feet per minute and cruise target
6667speed to the new altitude.
6668
6669The FMC software allows a CRZ DES to the normal Descent Path capture if the normal path is
6670encountered during the Cruise Descent and prior to reaching the new cruise altitude.
6671
6672the Descent phase will be entered from a Cruise Descent at the time the extended descent path is
6673captured. Note: CRZ DES will not capture an extended descent path if the CRZ altitude and descent
6674altitude constraint are the same
6675
6676or this:
6677
6678Note: CRZ DES will not capture the normal Descent Path if the CRZ altitude and descent
6679altitude constraint are the same.

7111if the cert pilots were never told this was coming, they didn’t properly evaluate if for cert purposes, to keep with our

7296RE: For 2pm
7297
7298
7299There were multiple issues that led to the crisis in confidence -
7300Strict FAA management on previous programs (747-8, 787-8)
7301
7302We are earlier than we typically would be (people are used to a “firm†aero config at TIA)
7303
7304The instructions in the order relative to TIA (states/implies strict transition from company testing to FAA) don’t
7305handle our blended approach well which leads to different interpretations
7306
7307The D6 document for TIA instructions/requirements are too vague. Because of that there is no plan laid out to
7308really describe what we are doing relative to the airplane configuration after TIA and getting to certification. You
7309see that in how different systems groups are addressing the issue. Some just say they will address post TIA
7310changes with absolutely no details of what they are doing to support their certification tests. Others went to great
7311detail to list what they were doing. A clean story of what we are really doing to get from TIA to cert tests to cert
7312would have helped resolve this. Thus there is no confidence that the FAA is understanding what they are accepting
7313(or rejecting). No confidence in how to interpret what is acceptable and not acceptable for post TIA configuration
7314changes and thus no confidence that ARs are doing the right thing in “concurringâ€.

7371The FAA AEG refuses to negotiate the training level determination for either RSAT or RCAS until the TIA is
7372submitted and they review it with the SACO pilots. We’ve got their preliminary approval of the RCAS CBT, based
7373on their inputs. That CBT is currently being revised. Now that we know the scope of the RSAT alerts that will be
7374certified, we can work to finalize the RSAT CBT. As we understand it now, the RSAT functionalities to be certified
7375along with RCAS are ORW (in air and on ground), PRW, and the SPEEDBRAKE alert. If this is not correct,
7376someone needs to let us know that.
7377
7378
7379To be clear, just because the AEG approved the RCAS CBT that does not mean they approved the CBT as the
7380only training required. I’m fairly sure they will push to have at least the ROLL AUTHORITY alert trained in a
7381simulator. We are going to push back very hard on this, and will likely need support at the highest levels when it
7382comes time for the final negotiation, j ]has already pledged his support for us obtaining Level B (CBT)
7383
7384as the min training required for RCAS. Failure to obtain Level B training for RCAS is a planet-killer for the MAX.
7385
7386
7387We can also expect the AEG to push for simulator training for some or all of RSAT. We will also be fighting
7388against this as well.
7389
7390We are well prepared to have this training level discussion with the AEG for both RSAT and RCAS.

76291) GTTA left the name as MCAS but treated as analogous function as a speed trim
7630type function.
7631
76322) If we emphasize MCAS is a new function there may be a greater certification
7633and training impact.
7634
76353) Treat as an addition to Speed Trim.
7636
76374) Externally we would communicate it is an addition to Speed Trim.
7638
76395) Internally continue using the acronym MCAS (within variable names etc).
7640
76416) Work with AR on certification perspective to ensure this strategy is
7642acceptable.
7643
76447) Make sure EASA Fam Tech presentation is consistent with intent that MCAS is
7645an addition to Speed Trim.

7649
7650After speaking with the Auto flight AR, concurrence'wasâ€'"provided that we can
7651continue to use the MCAS nomenclature internally (variable names, etc) while
7652still considering MCAS to be an addition to the Speed Trim function. This will
7653allow us to maintain the MCAS nomenclatue while not driving additional work due
7654to training impacts and maintenance manual expansions.

7842anything siad here change your opionion?
7843
7844ZZ.Z.Z.]19:40:
7845
7846Not really - they are ploughing forward regardless of the danger, failing to appreciate the implication of Boeing failing to
7847qualify a Boeing device running the Boeing Binary
7848
7849They are failing to appreciate that a delay would be less costly than the incurred costs for sustaining this, particularly as
7850the QTG will need to be changed immediately.
7851
7852Are they swaying your opinion? It all sounds plausible on face value but one slight error would compromise everything.
7853
7854jl9;43:
7855
7856I think the right answer is it’s not ready. I think we could get through it, but we’d be doing it just to save face. The biggest
7857risk is that if the FAA can’t come back for 3 months it risks the program.
7858
78591 1 9; 44;
7860
7861There is no pressing need for the device to be qualified at this point so why push our luck - we fluked 4 qualifications last
7862year and both ! a nd I had to compromise integrity during the qualifications. We left the campuses with a poor quality
7863device which fortunately in 3 campuses went unused. 3 campuses only got to the same standard sustainment-wise two
7864weeks ago
7865
7866Singapore is running a load that is >7 months old
7867
7868This will be no different and given we need TRU to fix things, how will they cope given that they are struggling with the
7869ZZZZjdevice and have our #5 I PA coming up.
7870
7871They don’t have the resources or bandwidth to deal with 6 different device QTGs going on at the same time
7872The fact that it took 6 hours to review the DRs last night speaks volumes to its readiness
7873
7874We also need to remove the projectors, reclamp the lenses, refit them and realign them thereafter - that is going to be
7875time consuming post qualification
7876
7877Even if it is qualified, how do we expect to turn around 7 day fixes if f" Si s en-route to Singapore?

7933It was never anywhere near that bad
7934And then when you pitched down it followed you
7935I think it follows the pitch attitude too much
7936[ I 5:38:
7937
7938Generally happens when asked to fly at 45 degrees nose up - initially I tried to follow it religiously but then thought I’d be a
7939little slow on the inputs as it seemed like the FD was changed to within +/1 degree of the aircraft attitude
7940I just couldn’t believe how bad it was - the first altitude on the route was 2000’ and it blew through that by about 500’
7941before even commanding a descenf

8167I am hoping we can ’hit’ the instructors at LGW via a couple of ways - the updated DR process I'm writing with more info
8168on what is needed for raising DRs, plus some separate things that came up with FT here at LGW where we’ll be having a
8169get-together with them! Understand totally about TDMS, ECDs etc - it was us that arrived at the solution of not tagging the
8170SMO stuff to the device if not resolved! - I'm just trying to figure out where to get the most 'objective' picture of progress
8171against the get-to-green plan.
8172
8173[ [ 15:43:
8174
8175SMO is a good place for the outstanding issues - the Miami device has very few device specific issues due to low usage

8178ok, thanksH~’]l take it you are fed up with being in MIA totally now? Are you leaving MIA because of the 30 day thing?
8179
8180; 115:46:
8181
8182Yes - i’m not fed up with Miami. I’m fed up with the meetings that include countless managers who have no understanding
8183of the state of the simulator or the problems that will arise. Everybody is investing more time in blaming others that actually
8184fixing the problem
8185
8186There are dozens of spreadsheets flying around and none of the data is in sync - nobody questions on the IPT why
8187SDSRs with no ECDs are not included in sim support metrics - how many are outstanding 5, 10, 500? It is masking figures
8188to manipulate perception
8189
8190Nobody questions how SDSRs requesting assistance can be closed with the comment "this is a TRU integration issue†-
8191FMC re host etc, is a grey box provided by Boeing as part of the BSP

8317no different to other TDMs but are cheaper and have to date, not failed to meet a major milestone

8328I can't tell you how much I appreciate your presence on this program. I've been trying to find a way to get you on the 777X

8330
8331LZZZZ>:46:
8332
8333There are 180 DRs on LGW and that is the lead ship - the hardware is buggered I believe but because I promoted a
8334software load, it is easier to blame that than fix the issue. That is due to misreporting by a campus that I held in regard but
8335then lost the rose-tinted glasses.
8336
8337You are only working so hard because you are trying to support your family - it doesn't seem like it to them and probably
8338not to you right now, but in a few years, they will realise that whilst it seems you are abandoning them, they have each
8339other whilst you are away - you don't have anyone whilst on the road - and I'm sure the Swede and I barely register on the
8340misfit scale.
8341
8342The money you are working so hard to gain and the sacrifices you are making will pave the way for your children to go
8343through college, for your wife to have the vacations and the things she needs

8545I agree with you entirely and agree with the whole failure to plan this program properly
8546from the Boeing side.
8547
8548I am just sick and tired of being put in the middle of this with pathetically week PMs and
8549no support - Singapore has done nothing except break the simulator - the PM here is now
8550swapping some form of isolator in the cockpit for reasons unknown - he has no training on
8551the device but thinks he knows what he is doing.
8552
8553At this rate, I will not be returning to Miami this trip or coming out again to either site
8554- I have had enough.

8569This is a direct result of a pour plan which I objected to repeatedly since day 1. The
8570schedule simply did not permit for any corrective actions to be taken; particularly given
8571the circumstances of the program and for a device which is clearly undermaintained. No
8572engineering support was ever planned in Singapore as per the change order executed in fall
85732017 despite my objections when my initial proposals were refused for being "overly
8574conservative". Moreover, given the need to extend residence in Miami, the Singapore
8575contingent was always going to be small and take its cues from Miami. This was discussed
8576and agreed upon.
8577
8578Further, none of the HW issues on MAX 2 were previously reported and a number of them were
8579caused recently by the campus itself. I am doing my best to mitigate the situation (as I
8580know 1 you are) but there is a limit to what can be accomplished in 3 days.
8581
8582As to the QTG, w T e will do our best to accommodate however the understanding was always to
8583submit the same document as in Miami run on the same load. Whatever deficiencies exist will
8584be addressed in Miami for both campuses as required prior to the qualifications but again
8585there is a limit to what can be done in 36-48 hours. Moreover it seems that we have sound
8586issues to contend with as well which needs to be our primary focus right now.
8587
8588I am not surprised by the outcome of the F&S. Nothing much has changed in 4 days so I
8589wasn T t expecting the F&S in Singapore to be any better than that of Miami. If anything it's
8590a little worse I imagine.
8591
8592We will continue to work out out issues but a lot of this is beyond our control.
8593
8594FYI we are building a new load this evening and offering another 6-8 DRs. I will forward
8595you release notes shortly.

8610I let it slide for the Miami qualification and put my name to something I didn't have the
8611opportunity to check thoroughly due to time constraints. I do not see why this cannot be
8612corrected now. I wished I had looked at the motion buffet tests further - the resource data
8613has no bearing on the VDR in several cases and I would like to know why - to my knowledge,
8614the data did not change at the last minute so I want to know why it differs. I had

8864
8865Amazing what a brown envelope can achieve - it isn’t anywhere near as good as it would appear to be reading the
8866report. The FAA were neither thorough nor demanding and failed to write up many issues.
8867
8868And the lies, the damned lies - I was removed from the simulator for three days in the week leading up to the
8869evaluation on the instructions of a Senior Manager so that certainly individuals could ‘tune’ with the pilot. The tuning
8870then fouled up multiple QTG tests and was clearly wrong and the pilot was forced to sign a SoC that was clearly
8871based on a lie. Another Senior Manager was also screamed at in a temper tantrum by said individual and also
8872barred from the simulator. The Go/No Go decision comes along and then aforementioned Senior Manager and
8873Senior Engineer then state to a cast of 30 - “we have to trust the decision of j | on Siteâ€.
8874
8875Needless to say, I tore straight into]_land!_ jabout the lies and the unethical/deceitful nature of this
8876
8877comment as it meant I was set up to take the blame should it have gone wrong.
8878
8879It is a joke and nothing more - whilst 9 PM s were on Site last week during the evaluation, it was for a jolly/free
8880meal. One PM even said that given that we are under budget, we should hire a yacht a sail around Miami harbour
8881to celebrate and even asked j ] to submit the request...

8975the AIM S2 GE BP17.1 ECL
8976
89773) I preate a custom version of the AIMS1 RR checklist for AIMS 2 BP17 and supply this with the MODB
8978and MODA2 parts.
8979
8980I did go to my colleagues in Seattle with this request but as the checklist is created by the airline they are unable to
8981do anything with these files and they suggested giving you a generic Boeing checklist.

9061
9062We are still having issues getting any of the checklists we have been sent to work. One of the guys is going to try
9063this AIMV2 BP17.1 GE version that you sent over the weekend with all the different MODB LSAPS that we already
9064have as I believe the M O DA p art you are sending needs to be compatible with a MODB part to give a working
9065
9066ECL. Currently with this I_checklist fitted we just get a ‘Checklist Unavailable’ message. I did ask Seattle to
9067
9068see if they could generate an AIMS2 BPV17 version of the RR ECL we previously were sent as there will
9069obviously be issues around engine failure drills etc even if we do get the GE checklist to work.

9147I hear what you’re saying, so I am willing to be the a-hole here and highlight this and call the Senior Leadership out for
9148creating this culture.
9149
9150Regarding the supplier side, someone made our bed so we just got to make the best of it and make sure we don’t let the
9151same things happen again else, why waste our time doing an AAR.

9165At this point I think there’s significant risk that the LGW MAX device will not be granted an iLC extension and will
9166lose its qualification by regulatpry decision, not ours. Not being granted an extension on that device would have
9167significant impact for L_I
9168
9169As for why people are voting yes.... everyone has it in their head meeting schedule is most important because
9170that’s what Leadership pressures and messages. All the messages are about meeting schedule, not delivering
9171quality. We managers were told names were being taken by senior leadership at the level D Go/NoGo meeting,
9172now referred to internally as the Go/Go meeting. Sometimes there are understandable reasons why we have
9173schedule pressures - such as major impacts to customers. But not always. Take iLC decisions - we had practically
9174no customer training on the device to now. But not looking bad by missing schedule was more important and we
9175missed the opportunity to fix things when there was low impact.
9176
9177We put ourselves in this position by picking the lowest cost supplier and signing up to impossible schedules. Why
9178did the lowest ranking and most unproven supplier receive the contract? Solely based on bottom dollar. Not just
9179MAX but also the 777X! Supplier management drives all these decisions - yet we can’t even keep one person
9180doing the same job in SM for more than 6 months to a year. They don’t know this business and those that do don’t
9181have the appropriate level of input.
9182
9183Also, that voting list is full of people voting for their self-interests. Binary was voting yes because ‘binary is good’.
9184Sim Support voted yes because ‘level D Data package is huge improvement over level C’. New Programs voting
9185yes because they need to make schedule and they believe the device will make it through qualification. Very few
9186people are actually voting understanding the entirety of the decision including customer quality and long term
9187maintainability of the specific device we are accepting. We haven’t even fully checked the requirements TRU is
9188supposed to meeting.
9189
9190I don’t know how to fix these things... it’s systemic. It’s culture. It’s the fact that we have a senior leadership team
9191that understand very little about the business and yet are driving us to certain objectives. Its lots of individual
9192groups that aren’t working closely and being accountable. It exemplifies the ‘lazy B\ Sometimes you have to let
9193things fail big so that everyone can identify a problem... maybe that’s what needs to happen rather than just
9194co nti nui ng to sera pe by.
9195
9196114
9197
9198Best part is we are re-starting this whole thing with the 777X with the same supplier and have signed up to an even
9199more aggressive schedule!

9214For the most part I agree. But I have to ask, who has said we had to proceed? Who from leadership had said we had to
9215meet some level of approval on the Singapore device? On the Miami one. I understand (don’t agree) why they decided to
9216move forward, but why do we allow this to happen?
9217
9218I look at who agreed to proceed to level C with EASA on the list and I see a whole slew of people that are not (quote)
9219Leadership yes they voted yes. You and i jsaid no, butf jet.c. etc. said yes. So who drove
9220
9221this to say yes?
9222
9223I understand your feeling and I want to help address the root problem, but the supplier selection is done. It isn't something
9224we have the luxury of going back and doing over. The Quality of Boeing data packages, okay, how do we fix it? I am not
9225advocating or defending our situation, but I have yet to see someone tell me that we need more resources, etc. etc.
9226
9227At this point, I am hearing your gripes, acknowledge they have validity, so let’s address this.
9228
9229I am all for saying “NO†to proceeding with any activity with Shanghai or Gatwick Max, so let me know how I should say no. I
9230can cite all the below, but I will immediately be asked, because I would if I heard someone say this, how do we fix it.
9231
9232So, I’m accepting the responsibility to say “no†but you need to help me address what happens after so that we can get to

9248For reference - this evening the Singapore EASA level D qualification was downgraded to level C as sound
9249objective tests could not pass. It was completely unnecessary, and frankly embarrassing on the part of Boeing and
9250TRU. A lot of the below is down in the weeds but adds depth to a clearly visible problem that we have systemic
9251organizational issues causing us to unnecessarily spend enormous amounts of effort (=$$$) to end up with poor
9252quality products and pat ourselves on the back about it.
9253
9254
9255It starts from our supplier selection process (or lack of) and continues to how we manage the supplier, the quality
9256and support of Boeing data packages, substandard/non-existant requirements management, lack of resource
9257staffing, lack of the right resources, lack of accountability, and hybrid ownership of programs/projects. It ends with
9258our repeated decisions to push products into the field to meet often arbitrary schedules despite suppliers not
9259delivering on commitments and clear quality concerns. At any point on this program (IPA, ilC, levelD) we could
9260have stopped this by standing firm on a commitment to quality until the program was where it need to be. However
9261we continued to bend to leadership pressure and allowed ourselves to shoot for the lowest possible bar of ‘We
9262think the regulator will qualify the device’.

9288Would it be possible to arrange for some form of after action review to determine what is causing the MAX
9289simulator program to press on regardless of the risks to the Boeing brand? Any such review should consider the
9290systemic failures in leadership, preparation, and communication that are squandering thousands of dollars of
9291Boeing finances and impacting the critical functions performed by the Flight Technical and Safety pilots for whom a
9292simulator acceptance/testing is a minor part.
9293
9294Consider the following, in the last 30 days:
9295
92961) Miami FA A Level D qualification was scheduled for March - it was achieved in late May.
9297
9298a) Between these dates 100-150 DRs alone were closed.
9299
9300b) The Boeing VDR has had more than 30 tests updated since release resulting from SDSRs
9301
9302c) The sound data package released to industry was unacceptable
9303
9304d) Functions and Subjective testing was only signed in mid-May on the third attempt and even then,
9305critical issues were downgraded
9306
9307e) 115 DRs were declared to the regulator at the time of qualification [100 others exists]
9308
9309f) The air conditioning issues identified in August last year were not resolved until the last minute resulting
9310in TRU charging Boeing for multiple visits to site to retune the sound
9311
9312g) Temporary air conditioning blower fans were reluctantly purchased to boost airflow and Boeing are
9313now having to purchase a CVAC from TRU which will require setup, and retuning of the sounds and
9314another visit to assess subjectively and objectively.
9315
9316h) The campus failed to provide the correct information to the regulator.
9317
9318i) The campus failed to communicate the correct qualification dates to anyone on the MAX program
9319resulting in airfare change fees of up to $5000. A result of this delayed travel to Singapore by 1 day.
9320Subsequent and unpredictable ATC delays further delayed travel by 18 hours.
9321
9322j) The regulator was extremely upset to be asked to qualify a device with so many declared defects and
9323documented this in their report. Worse, they felt that Boeing did not have a handle on the DRs and took
9324the decision to transfer TDMS DRs into their report to permit them to stipulate time frames for
9325rectification
9326
93272) Singapore EASA Level D / CAAS Level VII Qualification
9328
9329a) Miscommunication regarding F&S dates resulted in j j having to change flights twice
9330
9331b) Fortuitously, the CAAS qualification dates slipped by 2 weeks. Had the original schedule been adhered
9332to, the travel delays documented in item i) above resulted in the acceptance team arriving at 0030 on
9333the morning of day 1 of the qualification. There would have been no time to complete F&S checks
9334
9335c) The F&S checks were not signed at the time of QTG submittal due to there being too many hardware
9336issues on the device. These had been known to exist for 2 weeks prior to the commencement of F&S
9337testing but nothing had been done to resolve them until the issue was escalated.
9338
9339d) Sound tests were submitted 30 days prior to qualification with failing results. Nothing was done to
9340resolve the sound problems until the issue was escalated on day 1 of what would have been the CAAS
9341qualification
9342
9343e) Sound was only made to be marginally acceptable for Level C qualification on day 4 of the planned
9344qualification. Until then, the device would have been limited to Level IV under CAAS - a downgrade
9345from Level VII
9346
9347f) Sound still does not pass objectively and is ermains obviously different to the Miami device on day 5
9348of the planned qualification. Only now are the campus taking note of the fact that it may be a facility
9349issue [j’ land I found leaking air lines behind two of the devices which contribute to the ambient
9350simulator hall noise], TRU could not get the tests to pass - the campus believe that this may be
9351associated with the CVAC or compressor on the adjacent Mechtronix NG but the failing resultsiwere
9352
9353obtained with that device completely powered off.
9354
9355g) Nothing still has been done to satisfactorily resolve the sound issue. TRU did not send an engineer
9356when requested, nor did they send hardware engineers - they were already in Singapore to work at the
9357Airbus training centre. At this point, there is no requirement fori jto be on site, particularly when his
9358group is already stretched due to customer commitments and accident investigations
9359
9360h) The Go / No Go decision to proceed with qualification was based on schedule, nothing more. I do not
9361believe the device will fail Level C qualification, but the fact that we are going for Level C is a failure in
9362itself [although Boeing will not consider it so]. We will be left with a QTG that needs to be updated, a
9363device with 160 DRs on it, and the inconvenience of having to reschedule and finance another special
9364evaluation.
9365
9366i) Last year, in an inferior load, DR manipulation resulted in the declaration of 42 issues. This year, in an
9367improved load, we have already declared double that number - nobody has considered how this will be
9368explained. Plausible arguments such as “we have tested this using every level of documentation
9369available†will be presented, however, there is no rebuttal for the regulator counterpoint stating “why did
9370you not use these beforeâ€.
9371
9372j) The Singapore campus has documented problems with the quality of support they are provided with by
9373TRU - this is not likely to change
9374
9375k) The Singapore campus did not come close to meeting sustainment goals during the iLC process. Do
9376we believe they will achieve this during Level D?
9377
9378l) The Industry will now know that Boeing failed to qualify one of its own devices with its own product to
9379Level D standard - given the anti-binary sentiment in the industry, how will the impact of this be
9380perceived particularly given the failure is not Binary related?
9381
9382m) Level C qualification with the number of outstanding issues is not guaranteed
9383
9384We now have to determine how to approach the UK CAA for an extension to the iLC qualification - they will have
9385been contacted by EASA to indicate that there are significant numbers of outstanding issues in the Level C/D load
9386- their experience will lead them to appreciate that there must be considerably more in the iLC load and they will
9387have to seriously look at whether the device is in an acceptable condition to permit the certificate to be extended
9388[note the decision was taken to not declare all issues across all devices even when we knew them all to be
9389impacted because the Device Managers objected so the current list in TDMS is misleading].
9390
9391Time and time again, we are inundated with Boeing material specifying quality is key - this clearly is not the case
9392or driving factor in any of the decisions that are made. Lessons learned continually say we should not accept
9393inferior quality products because there is an unnecessary and costly overhead associated with doing so, but here
9394we are, immediately prior to qualification, dealing with an issue that was documented weeks ago, and now
9395accepting a reduced qualification level [read failed] as a result. Nobody seemed to consider in the meeting today
9396that a qualified device that goes unused is almost as useless as non-qualified device. Given that the 737-8 is a
9397common type rating, why would a customer pay the elevated price to use a MAX simulator when there are dozens
9398of Level D qualified 737 devices across 6 continents? Has this lesson not been learned in the MAX classroom?
9399
9400Until an open and frank discussion takes place, the same errors, wasted opportunities, and financial losses will
9401continually be absorbed.
