FlyersRights.org ua waiho i kahi noi no ka Hoʻoholo Hoʻoholo i kāna hihia Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) e kūʻē i ka FAA. (Flyers Rights Education Fund v. FAA, (DDC CV-19-3749 (CKK)) Ke ʻimi nei ia i ka hōʻike ʻana i nā palapala FAA e pili ana i ka noi ʻana o 737 MAX, no laila hiki i nā loea kūʻokoʻa a me ka lehulehu ke nānā i ke kumu i Hoʻolālā ʻo FAA e hoʻokahuli i ka mokulele.

ʻElua mau mokulele Boeing 737 MAX i hāʻule i loko o ʻelima mau mahina o kekahi i kekahi i ka hopena o 2018 & kakahiaka 2019, i luku ʻia 346 mau ohua a me nā luina. ʻO Flyersrights.org, ka hui nui o nā mokulele mokulele nui loa, i faila i kahi hihia FOIA i Kēkēmapa 2019 ma hope o ka nānā ʻole a hōʻole paha o ka FAA i nā noi FOIA he nui no 737 MAX palapala.

Kākoʻo ʻia ka noi no ka hoʻolaha FAA e ka lehulehu o nā poʻe loea a me nā makemake pilikino mokulele, e like me:

Michael Neely (20 mau makahiki me Boeing ma ke ʻano he ʻenekini ʻōnaehana a me ka ʻenekini papahana),

ʻO Javier de Luis PhD (30 mau makahiki o ka ʻike ma ke ʻano he ʻenekini mokulele a me kahi manakia, haʻi ʻōlelo MIT),

Richard Spinks (38 mau makahiki o ka ʻike i ka palekana hana, hana ʻenehana automation),

ʻO Dennis Coughlin (31 mau makahiki o ka ʻike ma ke ʻano he loea avionics a mea aʻo),

Ajit Agtey (40 mau makahiki o ka ʻike ma ke ʻano he mokulele mokulele a me ka pailaka pūʻali koa, a ʻo ka Luna Hoʻokele Hoʻokolohua Aliʻi o ka Air Force Air),

ʻO Daniel Gellert (50 mau makahiki ma ke ʻano he pailaka mokulele ʻoihana, ʻo Boeing pailaka ho'āʻo, a me ka luna o ka FAA),

ʻO Geoffrey Barrance (30 mau makahiki i ʻike ʻia ma ke ʻano he avionics, ʻenekini ea a me kahi ʻenekini palekana),

ʻO Gregory Travis (ma luna o 30 mau makahiki i ʻike ma ke ʻano he ʻepekema / ʻepekema polokalamu kamepiula,

ʻO Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger (37 mau makahiki i ʻike ʻia ma ke ʻano he mokulele mokulele a me ka pailaka pūʻali koa, 10 mau makahiki ma ke ʻano he kūkākūkā palekana palekana a me ka mea kākau, i hoʻolauleʻa ʻia no ka pae kūleʻa ʻana o kahi mokulele kīnā ʻole ma ka muliwai ʻo Hudson),

ʻO Michael Goldfarb (ʻoi aku ma mua o 30 mau makahiki i ʻike ma ke ʻano he kūkākūkā palekana palekana mokulele a me kahi luna hoʻomalu o ka palekana mokulele FAA ma mua), a

ʻO Sara Nelson, ka pelekikena o ka hui nui o ka hui lele o ʻAhahui lele o AFA.

Hoʻohui ʻia, ʻoi aku ka nui o kēia mau loea ma mua o 400 mau makahiki o ka ʻike. ʻ asslelo lākou āpau he hiki ʻole ke koho inā palekana ka ʻole MAX MAX me ka ʻole o ka hōʻike ʻana i nā kikoʻī o ka hoʻoponopono Boeing MAX a me ka hoʻāʻo FAA.

Ma loko o 7 mau mahina, ua hana ka FAA ma kahi o 100 mau palapala (ʻoi aku ma mua o 8,000 ʻaoʻao), a i hoʻopau ʻia a aneane paha i hana hou ʻia ma nā kahua ʻike pilikino (FOIA Exemption 4). Ua komo kēia mau palapala i ka ʻike i manaʻo ʻole ʻia he kuleana, e like me ke ʻano o ka mālama pono ʻana i ke kānāwai pekelala.

Ua hoʻoholo ʻo Paul Hudson, Pelekikena o FlyersRights.org a me ka mea kōkua loiloi mokulele manawa lōʻihi, "ʻO nā ulia 737 MAX ʻelua i hōʻailona i ka hopena o ko FAA noho aliʻi ʻana ma ke ʻano he kūlana gula no ka palekana mokulele. Ua hōʻike ka 737 MAX debacle i ke alakaʻi ʻana o FAA e ka ʻoihana. Mai Malaki 2019, ua hōʻoiaʻiʻo pinepine ʻo FAA a me Boeing i ka lehulehu e maopopo ka piha ʻana o ka transparency. "

"Hūnā ʻo Boeing i nā palapala mai ka FAA a me nā mokulele i mea e loaʻa ai ka 737 MAX i hōʻoia mua ʻia e like me ka palekana. I kēia manawa, ʻoiai nā manaʻo nui a ka luna nui o Boeing ʻo Calhoun a me nā luna o ka FAA e hele a piha ka mālamalama i mua, ʻimi ʻo Boeing a me FAA e hūnā i kāna mau palapala āpau, a makemake ka FAA e hūnā i kāna ʻike ʻikepili. "

"Ua hōʻole ka FAA e hoʻokō i nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo kuʻuna Manaʻo Manaʻo Kūʻokoʻa (JATR), a ʻānō ka FAA e hōʻoki i ka manawa hope loa o ka loiloi kūʻokoʻa o ka Boeing MAX," hoʻomau ʻo Paul Hudson. "Inā hele ʻo Boeing a me FAA i ko lākou ala, e hoʻopau koke ʻia ka 737 MAX me ka loiloi ʻole ʻia e nā loea kūʻokoʻa, a me ka ʻole o ka hoʻokō ʻana i nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo a ka JATR"

He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:

It seeks disclosure of FAA documents pertaining to the proposed ungrounding of the 737 MAX, so independent experts and the public can review the basis on which the FAA intends to unground the plane.
Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger (37 years experience as an airline and military pilot, 10 years as an aviation safety consultant and author, celebrated for successful landing of a disabled airliner in the Hudson River),.
They all assert that it is impossible to determine if the pending unground the MAX is safe without disclosure of the details of Boeing MAX fix and FAA testing.
