FAA Hopes Global Regulators Simultaneously Approve Boeing 737 MAX to Fly Again
The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration hopes civil aviation authorities around the world will decide at about the same time to allow the Boeing 737 MAX to resume flying, the agency told Congress on Tuesday in a letter seen by Reuters. The FAA and other regulators grounded the plane in March after two fatal crashes in five months killed 346 people. (finance.yahoo.com) Mehr...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Ridiculous statement!!
As a long time commercial pilot and aero engineer, I unequivocally say I would be perfectly comfortable walking onto a U.S. operated 37Max to go from A to B. It seems to have escaped notice that all TWO of their 'accidents' were on 3rd world 'airlines'.
Compared with the initial teething of many other aircraft like the 737, Electra, Comet, DC-10, F104 & V22 Osprey, just to mention a few, this plane's troubles aren't even significant.

There were as many incidents in the western world but most were unreported to the public, you should know as a long time commercial pilot.
The FAA can hope all they want, but given they were negligently asleep at the wheel on this entire mess and then dragged their feet on the grounding they have have a LONG way to go until they regain credibility.
The FAA has always been the cheer squad for the industry and now that we have hundreds dead over this completely avoidable situation, they're going to have to work hard to gain our trust.

It is not a software problem,it is a design problem and until that is fixed boeing will continue to have problems with this model plane.
The chief of engineering has spoken.
Uh, chief of imagineering.
