) still has a series of steps to complete before the 737 MAX can return to service, including submitting a pre-production version of a software update, Federal Aviation Administration chief Steve Dickson said.
The FAA has been reviewing proposed software and training changes from Boeing Co for months and it remains uncertain when Boeing will conduct a certification test flight, a step needed before its best-selling plane can fly again. “We’ve had conversations about the importance of making sure that we are looking at complete documentation and not piecemeal documentation,” Dickson said.
FAA still needs to see Boeing’s “final system description” - a “500-ish page document that has the architecture of the flight control system and the changes that they have made,” Dickson said, adding that the software changes must be in a “pre-production” code and not a “beta version”. Once the system description is completed, the FAA will work with Boeing to develop the “integrated system safety analysis” - a step that will take a few days.
