(Reuters) – U.S. Senate Commerce Committee chair Maria Cantwell said she plans to introduce legislation on Thursday to require the Federal Aviation Administration to use advanced safety measures after its actions overseeing Boeing have raised questions.
“We really think the FAA needs to have its own process,” Cantwell said of safety management systems.
She also said she still plans to call Boeing to testify even after the company named Kelly Ortberg as its new CEO on Wednesday.
She said the new CEO of Boeing should be based in Seattle. A source confirmed that Ortberg plans to be based in Seattle.
