Boeing invites pilots, regulators to briefing as it looks to return 737 Max to commercial service Boeing737Max
SINGAPORE/ADDIS ABABA - Boeing Co said it invited more than 200 airline pilots, technical leaders and regulators for an information session on Wednesday as it looks to return the 737 Max to commercial service.
The informational session in Renton, Washington, on Wednesday is part of a plan to reach all current and many future 737 Max operators and their home regulators to discuss software and training updates to the jet, Boeing said in a statement. Garuda has only one 737 Max and had been reconsidering its order before the Ethiopian crash, as has fellow Indonesian carrier Lion Air, which experienced a deadly crash in October.
The 737 Max is Boeing's best-selling plane, with orders worth more than US$500 billion at list prices. It remained unclear whether the software upgrade, called"design changes" by the FAA, will resolve concerns stemming from the ongoing investigation into the March 10 Ethiopian Airlines crash, which killed all 157 on board.
