FAA Decision Expected Soon Amid Software Concerns
Boeing is hoping to secure certification for its 737 Max 10 aircraft soon, with the FAA potentially issuing a type certificate as early as October 20. The certification process had been delayed due to a software glitch, but the FAA has since deemed it not safety-critical. The certification is crucial for Boeing, as the 737 Max 10 represents a significant portion of the company’s backlog. The news was first reported by Leeham News and Analysis.
