CHICAGO - The head of the International Air Transport Association warned on Tuesday that any discrepancy among global regulators over reapproving Boeing Co’s 737 MAX for commercial flight could set a worrying precedent for future aircraft programs.
The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration has traditionally taken the lead on certifying Boeing aircraft, leaving other regulators globally to follow suit. That process has been supported by IATA, a trade association of the world’s airlines. “We see a discrepancy that’s detrimental to the industry,” he added, urging regulators to make any changes to the single certification process “collectively.”
Presentation slides posted on the European Parliament website showed that of the latest solutions presented by Boeing, EASA was satisfied with changes to the flight control computer architecture and believed improved crew procedures and training were a work in progress. However, it noted there was still no appropriate response to issues with the integrity of the angle of attack system.
