Boeing’s grounded 737 MAX could be cleared to return to the skies in the U.S. as early as this year
, despite a continued cascade of damning revelations about the design and approval of the passenger jet that crashed in Indonesia and Ethiopia, killing a total of 346 people.
Even so, Boeing said last week that it had completed a “dry-run” of a certification test flight for the MAX. The FAA has repeatedly said that the process for returning it to flight will take as long as required, but U.S. airlines that operate the plane are planning for a return to service early next year.
European regulators, meanwhile, have signaled that they won't necessarily follow the FAA's timeline. Instead they are relying on their own process, which includes testing and oversight independent of the FAA that will determine their timeline for allowing the MAX back in their airspace. Acknowledging this reality, Muilenburg has said a "phased" global return to service is possible.
In a 2016 email, Boeing 737 chief technical pilot Mark Forkner told someone at the FAA that he was “jedi-mind tricking regulators into accepting the training that I got accepted by the FAA.”
