WASHINGTON, Jan 14 (Reuters) - President-elect Donald

Trump's nominee to head the Transportation Department will tell

a Senate committee on Wednesday he aims to ensure worldwide

trust in U.S. planemaker Boeing ( BA ) after a 2024 mid-air

emergency.

"I will work with Congress and the FAA to restore global

confidence in Boeing ( BA ) and to ensure our skies are safe," said

Sean Duffy, a former U.S. House lawmaker, according to written

testimony seen by Reuters.

The Federal Aviation Administration is maintaining tougher

oversight of Boeing ( BA ) indefinitely, a year after a door panel

missing four bolts flew off a new Alaska Airlines Boeing

737 MAX 9 in mid-air.
