Boeing, a superpower of the aviation world, is in the midst of a profound crisis.
The new anti-stall mechanism on the Max relied on data from one single sensor at the front of the aircraft.

Mr Nader ran several times for the US presidency, he's an experienced lawyer and has form at taking on big companies and is threatening to take legal action against Boeing.
