CHICAGO - Boeing Co set out in greater detail on Sunday the development process that led it to make the AOA Disagree alert a standard item on the 737 MAX before it returns to service, responding to a series of negative press reports.

In a statement, Boeing reiterated that the instrument is not necessary for the safe operation of a commercial aircraft.
