Boeing 737 Max out for ‘several quarters’
Boeing said it will take “several quarters” to return the 737 Max fleet to the skies following a grounding that has left about 700 planes on the tarmac. “We are not going to over-stress the system,” said Randy Tinseth, Boeing’s VP for marketing. The manufacturer will first ensure the 400 planes with customers and the 300 more stored in factories are flying again before ramping up production, Tinseth said. “The process of doing this will take several quarters,” he said. One key element of returning the jet to service is training pilots on simulators. While countries like India have advised Boeing to set up simulators locally, Tinseth said existing equipment should cover all training requirements. <br/>
