Boeing now expects mid-year certification of 737 Max
Boeing now expects the FAA will certificate the 737 Max in the middle of 2020, marking another delay to the aircraft’s flight approval, which some industry observers had expected would come early this year. “We are informing our customers and suppliers that we are currently estimating that the un-grounding of the 737 Max will begin during mid-2020. This estimate is informed by our experience to date with the certification process.” Boeing’s latest projection “accounts for the rigorous scrutiny that regulatory authorities are rightly applying at every step of their review of the 737 Max’s flight control system, and the Joint Operations Evaluation Board process, which determines pilot training requirements,” the company says. <br/>
