SECOND-HAND SAFETY.

The article discusses an investigation conducted by the inspector general (IG) of the U.S. Department of Transportation into the safety of airlines following the two Boeing 737 Max 8 crashes in Indonesia and Ethiopia. According to the IG, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) uses compliance actions rather than enforcement to ensure safety. Some law-enforcement and watchdog bodies have also announced plans to look into Boeing's production of aircraft and the FAA's oversight.
