US Senate investigators say that Boeing officials "inappropriately coached" test pilots during efforts to recertify the company's 737 Max aircraft.
The planes were grounded in March 2019 following two deadly crashes.
Investigators accused Boeing and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) officials of "attempting to cover up important information".
Boeing said it was reviewing the findings and took them "seriously", while the FAA defended its conduct.

Planemaker and US regulator may have tried to cover up important information relating to deadly crashes – official report
This is a classic case of agency capture where the regulator becomes so closely tied and influenced by the regulated.
