U-Boeing Max akakhuselekanga, i-FAA kunye no-Nobhala Wezothutho wase-US bayazi

Inkqubo cirhashalala ye-Ethiopian Airlines FlighAyiyontlekele yase-Ethiopia nje kuphela, kodwa iphupha elibi lase-Indonesia kunye nomcimbi waseMelika kunye nentlekele ngakumbi.

Izalamane zeentsapho zengozi ye-MAX e-Ethiopia zacela ukuba uMlawuli oyiNtloko weBoeing uDave Calhoun, umanduleli wakhe uDennis Muilenburg kunye nabanye abasebenzi bangoku kunye nabangaphambili ukuba basuswe phantsi kwamatyala adityanisiweyo afakwe kwinkundla yesithili saseChicago. 

URobert A. Clifford, umseki kunye neqabane eliphezulu leeOfisi zoMthetho zeClifford kunye nomcebisi okhokelayo wetyala elimele iintsapho ze-72, ingxelo yokuba umhla wetyala kungekudala uza kumiselwa ngo-2022 kumcimbi phambi kweNkundla yeSithili sase-US uJorge Alonso eChicago. Okwangoku, ukufunyanwa kuyaqhubeka kunye nezigidi zamaphepha amaxwebhu ahlaziywayo kunye nokufakwa kwamaqela amaninzi athathiweyo, kubandakanywa nabaphathi abaphezulu be-Boeing.

Iintsapho bezizingisa ukuqinisekiswa kwakhona ngokupheleleyo, ukuphonononga zonke iinkqubo ze-737 zamva nje eziye ayiqinisekiswanga ngaphezulu kweminyaka engama-50 kwaye oko kuye kwenzeka utshintsho oluninzi kubandakanya ukubeka iinjini ezisandula ubungakanani ngaphambili emaphikweni. Amaxwebhu angaphakathi e-FAA yase-US kuxelwe ukuba abonisa ukuba ezinye iinkqubo zeMax8 ziyasilela ukuthobela imigangatho yokhuseleko yale mihla.

               “Umlo weentsapho wokufumana ulwazi ngokwenene wenzela uluntu kwiinzame zokwenza ukuba ukubhabha kukhuseleke kumntu wonke kuba selidlulile ixesha kubantu ababathandayo,” utshilo uClifford. “Le yenye yezona zenzo zokuzincama endakha ndazibona kumsebenzi wam wokuba ligqwetha lezomoya. Bayithathela phezulu intlungu yabo bezama ukwenza into eyakhayo ukuze ukubhubha kwababathandayo kungabi lilize. Nangona indlela abayikhethayo isesidlangalaleni, bakubeke ecaleni ukubandezeleka kwabo kwangasese ukuzama ukuqinisekisa ukuba oku akwenzeki nakubani na.”

               Indiza yokuqala ye-Boeing Max8 yawela kuLwandle lweJava malunga nemizuzu elithoba emva kokusuka e-Indonesia ngo-Oktobha 29, i-2018, yabulala yonke i-189 o ibhodi. Inqwelomoya ayizange imiswe kwihlabathi jikelele de kwasweleka abanye abantu abayi-157 xa i-737 Max8 yesibini yantlitheka malunga nemizuzu emithandathu indulukile e-Addis Ababa, e-Ethiopia, isingise eKenya.

Unobhala wase-US DOT uPete Buttigieg udibene namhlanje kunye nosapho lukaSamya Rose Stumo osweleke kwingozi yeBoeing 737 MAX 8 e-Ethiopia. Le yayiyintlanganiso yokuqala kaNobhala uButtigieg emva kokuba eqinisekisiwe. Namhlanje siphawula isikhumbuzo seminyaka emibini ukusukela oko inqwelomoya yehla yabulala abantu abayi-157 ababekhwele.

               Phantse iyure, usapho lakwaStumo luxelele uButtigieg kunye nomsebenzi kwintlanganiso ekude ekuhlaleni ukuba inqwelomoya yeMAX ayikakhuselekanga njengoko kuqinisekisiwe ziinjineli ngaphakathi kwiFederal Aviation Administration (FAA) kunye neenjineli zeBoeing. Iseneesistim ezininzi ezibalulekileyo ezinokusilela kunye nezinye iinkqubo ezingahambelaniyo nemithetho yangoku yokhuseleko. 

               Bacacisele uButtigieg ukuba iinjineli ze-FAA ziveze ukuba abaphathi be-FAA baye banempembelelo engafanelekanga ngokuthanda ishishini.   

Ngokukodwa, uMichael Stumo (utata kaSamya) uNadia Milleron (unina) kunye noTor Stumo (umntakwabo), uxelele uButtigieg ukuba ubuncinci abaphathi beFAA abane kufuneka batshintshwe: Umlawuli weFAA uSteve Dickson, uMlawuli oyiNtloko weNkonzo yeSiqinisekiso seNqwelomoya yeFAA uEarl Lawrence, FAA. UMgaqo-nkqubo kunye neCandelo leNtsha yokuQala uMlawuli weNkonzo yeSiqinisekiso seNqwelomoya uMichael Romanowski, kunye noMlawuli oDibene neFAA woKhuseleko lwezoPhapho u-Ali Bahrami. I-FAA yi-arhente yase-US eqinisekisa zonke iinqwelomoya ukuba zibhabha.

               “Unobhala uButtigieg wayesamkele kakhulu kwaye usinike ixesha elingakumbi kunesithembiso,” utshilo uMichael Stumo emva kwentlanganiso. “Usinike iimpendulo kwimibuzo ephathelele le nqwelo-moya kanye nento eyaziyo yi-FAA phakathi kwengozi. Wayekhathazeke kakhulu ngeengcinga zokuba abaphathi babengumqobo kukhuseleko. Unobhala uButtigieg uthe uzinikele ekusifumaneni iimpendulo.

Abantu ababekhwele kwinqwelo-moya babesuka kumazwe angama-35. UChris noClariss Moore baseToronto, eKhanada, bafelwa yintombi yabo uDanielle eneminyaka engama-24 kwinqwelo-moya. Baye bakhumbula usuku ngokudala ulwazi olukhulu loluntu malunga nentlekele, bemi phambi kwe-Consulate yase-US eToronto e-360 University Ave. ngo-10 am EST. Babephethe imiqondiso eyayibhalwe, “Abangama-346 Bafile, Akukho Bani Uphendulileyo.” Ekuqaleni kwenyanga, i-Moores yadibana namagosa oThutho eKhanada ukuba axoxe ngeengxaki eziqhubekayo ezijikeleze i-MAX ekhutshwe eCanada. Kwenziwa isicelo sokuvala inqwelomoya yeBoeing 737 MAX engakhuselekanga eCanada.a.

   "Sinethemba elikhulu lokuba uyabona ukuba ukuze enze ixesha lakhe njengoNobhala we-DOT liphumelele, kunomdla wakhe ukuphucula kakhulu i-FAA kunye nolawulo kunye nenkcubeko," kusho uStumo. “Yayiyincoko enesiqhamo nenyanisekileyo. Siyathemba ukuba uthatha ulwazi malunga neziphene ezifihliweyo kwinqwelomoya kunye nokusilela kolawulo kwi-FAA ukuze kungabikho ngozi yesithathu. Bubunkokeli obutsha kuphela obunokubuyisela ukuthembela kwi-FAA. ”
