Lion Air family files lawsuit against Boeing

A lawsuit against Boeing blames the airplane maker for the crash of a Lion Air flight in the Java Sea that killed all 189 people aboard. The wrongful death suit was filed in Cook County in the name of passenger Sudibyo Onggo Wardoyo, 40, of Jakarta, Indonesia, who was killed in the crash. It was filed on behalf of his parents and three siblings. The suit alleges that the sensors on Boeing’s 737 MAX provided inaccurate data to its flight control system, causing its anti-stall system to improperly engage, leading the plane to crash after taking off on October 29.
