Boeing identifies 737 Max software glitch that may prompt delays

Boeing has identified a software glitch in its 737 Max aircraft that could lead to delays in the plane's return to service. The issue arose from a recent cockpit software update and can occur when pilots alter their planned flight path after a missed approach. This glitch may cause the plane to automatically descend to a lower altitude than intended, posing a potential safety risk. The discovery of this issue could further hinder the 737 Max's return to commercial flights, which have been grounded since 2019 following two fatal crashes.
