华盛顿10月2日电：美国联邦航空管理局周五表示，一个专家小组认定，部分波音737 MAX飞行计算机存在的软件故障不会引发安全担忧，这为批准这款畅销窄体客机的更大型号铺平了道路。
WASHINGTON, Oct 2 : The Federal Aviation Administration said Friday a panel of experts determined a software glitch in some Boeing 737 MAX flight computers does not pose safety concern, clearing the way for approval of a larger version of the best-selling narrowbody airplane.
美国联邦航空管理局表示，这一认定基于以下事实：“飞行员仍可完全控制飞机，且向飞行机组提供的信息清晰明确。”该局本周早些时候表示，在完成相关问题分析之前，将推迟对MAX 10的认证。
The FAA said the determination was based on the fact "pilots retain full control of the aircraft and the indications to the flight crew are clear and unambiguous." The FAA said earlier this week it was delaying certification of the MAX 10 until it completed an analysis of the issue.
