1844 EDT [Dow Jones] -- U.S. air-safety regulators have sketched
out a series of proposed technical, procedural and policy changes
in the wake of the Boeing 737 MAX crisis. Responding to
recommendations from a blue-ribbon advisory panel created by the
Transportation Department, the Federal Aviation Authority said the
group's findings "underscore that our existing strategic safety
initiatives are sound." But the agency said ongoing and envisioned
adjustments to certification of new models include closer
cooperation with foreign aviation authorities. The changes
encompass everything from enhanced focus on human factors to closer
staff coordination to updated safety assessments evaluating
derivatives of existing aircraft types. Basic principles of
delegating certain FAA authorities and approvals to manufacturers,
though, will remain, largely the same. (andy.pasztor@wsj.com)
