波音承認737MAX飛行模擬器存在缺陷大綱

Boeing has reportedly admitted for the first time that there was a flaw in its 737 MAX flight simulators.
波音公司首次承認在它的737MAX飛行模擬器存在缺陷。

“Boeing has made corrections to the 737 MAX simulator software and has provided additional information to device operators to ensure that the simulator experience is representative across different flight conditions,” the manufacturer told the AFP news agency in a statement.
“波音公司對其737MAX飛行模擬器做出改進，爲了保證在不同的飛行條件下，模擬器的經驗是有代表性的，該公司向設備操作員提供了額外的信息。”製造商在接收AFP新聞社採訪的聲明中稱。

Boeing acknowledged that the flight simulators were incapable of reproducing the kind of flight conditions that occurred at the time of the Ethiopian Airlines crash in March or the Lion Air crash in October.
波音承認飛行模擬器不能夠重現三月份發生埃塞俄比亞航空撞擊，和10月印尼獅航的撞擊。

The planes have been grounded worldwide since the two crashes, which killed 346 people. Both accidents were blamed on a defect in the anti-stall system.
在兩起空難346人喪生，此次該飛機在全球範圍內被禁。這兩起事故都歸咎於防失速系統的缺陷。

Boeing did not say when it became aware of the simulator problem.
在意識到原因是由於模擬器的問題以後波音公司並沒有做出說明。

Boeing had already acknowledged earlier this month it knew a safety alert on 737 MAX planes was not working correctly.
在本月的早些時候才承認波音承認737MAX飛行模擬器沒有正常工作是一個安全預警。
