A judge in the US state of Delaware allows a lawsuit by Boeing shareholders against the company's board of directors for two fatal crashes of the 737 Max.

It has been proven that the board of directors lied about whether and how they monitored the safety of the 737 Max, the verdict said yesterday. The first of the two crashes was a "warning" regarding an error in the MCAS security system, "which the board should have taken into account, but instead ignored".

That the board of directors knowingly failed is also shown by the fact that it stated at the time that it had taken certain measures to monitor security, which it had not actually taken. The ORF reports. A total of 346 people were killed in the crashes. The 737 Max has been banned from flying for 20 months by the US aviation authority FAA and can now take off again under strict conditions after an overhaul.
