Boeing to plead guilty to avoid trial over fatal 737 Max crashes
Boeing has accepted a plea deal on a criminal fraud charge related to two fatal crashes of its 737 Max aircraft. The terms include a fine of 244-million dollars.
At least 346 people were killed in crashes in Indonesia and Ethiopia in 2018 and 2019.
The settlement must now be approved by a US judge.
