Once the 737 MAX is given the green light to return to service, new CEO David Calhoun will face the complex task of orchestrating the retrofitting and delivery of roughly 400 aircraft Boeing has produced since the plane was grounded in March. Here's how Boeing is marshaling the planes.
below from Planet Labs, a San Francisco-based company with a network of about 140 small satellites that take over a million images of the Earth a day: Moses Lake is a short flight from the delivery center at Boeing Field and the company’s factory complex in Everett, Washington, the two locations where the bulk of the return to service work is expected be done.
Beyond updating the planes’ flight control software, Boeing’s task is made more complex by the varying amounts of time different aircraft have been sitting. The longer they’ve been parked,To make its job easier, Boeing could group aircraft together that need the same work packages, says Merluzeau. However, two other bottlenecks loom for Boeing. The FAA has decided it will inspect and certify all of Boeing’s planes that are coming out of storage before they are delivered, a task it had previously delegated to Boeing. That could slow down the process.
