FAA panel says Boeing 737 Max software is 'operationally suitable' in new report

The Federal Aviation Administration on Tuesday released its initial review of Boeing's 737 Max anti-stall software suspected to contribute to two fatal plane crashes, calling it "operationally suitable."

The draft report from the FAA's Flight Standardization Board recommends that pilots take additional computer-based training for the MCAS automated flight system.

The company's shares jumped by about 2% on the news.

Boeing said it's completed 96 flights totaling over 159 hours of air time with its software fix for the Max jet.
