FAA certifies Boeing 737 Max 10 after delays

The FAA certified Boeing's 737-10 variant, allowing deliveries to begin soon. The aircraft can carry up to 230 passengers and offers lower per-seat costs and more range than competitors, according to Boeing. Certification was delayed due to avionics redesign work.

The FAA requires GE Aerospace's redesigned GE9X mid-seal for Boeing 777-9 certification. GE aims for approval by 2026, with Boeing targeting 2027 deliveries. The seal issue, discovered earlier this year, delayed engine shipments until the redesign was tested and implemented. GE resumed deliveries in Q3 2023 but won't recognize revenue until certification. The 777-9 certification program has faced delays, with first service expected in 2027.
