According to a spokesperson for Boeing Co (BA), corrections have already been made to simulator software mimicking the flying experience of Boeing’s 737 MAX aircraft. At the same time, additional information has been provided to device operators.
Boeing shares closed higher for a fourth consecutive trading session in New York on Friday. The stock edged up 0.34% ($1.21) to $355.02, after touching an intraday high at $359.99, or a price level not seen since May 8th ($361.52).
Shares of Boeing Company have surged 10.08% so far in 2019 compared with a 14.07% gain for the benchmark index, S&P 500 (SPX).
In 2018, Boeing’s stock went up 9.36%, thus, it outperformed the S&P 500, which registered a 6.24% loss.
The changes are meant to make sure that the simulator experience reflects different flight conditions and to enhance the simulation of force loads on the manual trim wheel that helps control the jet, the company representative said.
“Boeing is working closely with the device manufacturers and regulators on these changes and improvements, and to ensure that customer training is not disrupted,” Boeings spokesman Gordon Johndroe was quoted as saying by Reuters.
According to a report by the New York Times, despite that Boeing does not build the simulators, the US plane maker does provide the underlying information on which they are designed and built.
