  "summary": "The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has determined that a software bug in certain Boeing 737 MAX flight computers does not pose a safety concern. According to the FAA, the glitch, which can cause an automated navigation feature to fail when planes shift their approach to landing, does not compromise pilot control of the aircraft.\n\nThe FAA's review board reached this conclusion because pilots retain full control of the aircraft and the indications to the flight crew are clear and unambiguous. The agency will consider further action if it receives new information about the issue.\n\nBoeing will send a bulletin to airlines detailing the issue and instructing employees on how to recognize and respond to the situation if it occurs. The company has already informed all 737 operators about the software issue, which affects access to automated flight guidance during a specific landing scenario.",
