US regulators certify Boeing 737 MAX 10 after delays
The move clears the way for increased plane deliveries in the coming years, a key aspect of Boeing's plan to improve financial performance.
The US Federal Aviation Administration has officially certified the Boeing 737 MAX 10, marking a significant milestone for the troubled aircraft manufacturer. After enduring delays of nearly six years, the FAA has granted a certificate confirming that the latest long-delayed version of the popular single-aisle aircraft meets all design and safety requirements.
This decision follows a thorough review of the aircraft's design and safety, with FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford emphasizing that Boeing will continue to be held to the highest safety standards as production begins. Boeing expects to commence 737 MAX 10 deliveries in 2027, with the company having undertaken over 2,000 hours of flight testing and supplying tens of thousands of pages of documentation to US officials.
The certification follows US approval of the 737 MAX 7 in August, clearing the way for increased plane deliveries and a key aspect of Boeing's plan to improve financial performance after a period of weakness.
