  "summary": "Boeing has identified a software issue with its 737 MAX planes that may cause the automated flight guidance system to disengage during a second landing attempt. The problem can occur when pilots change their planned flight path after abandoning a landing attempt.\n\nThe US Federal Aviation Administration is convening a review board to determine whether the glitch presents a flight-safety issue. If it does, this could delay certification of Boeing's new 737 MAX 10 and complicate the entry into service of the recently approved MAX 7.\n\nBoeing informed all 737 operators about the software issue last month and reinforced existing pilot procedures for safely handling such cases. According to Boeing, the software glitch may increase pilot workload during landing, but the company's spokesperson stated that existing procedures are in place to safely handle such cases.",
