What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Lufthansa expanded its fleet by adding 20 Boeing 737 MAX 10s. Separately, the Federal Aviation Administration issued a major order changing how some homebuilt aircraft achieve their first airworthiness certificate, giving Certificate Management Sections a larger role in original certifications. The FAA also approved a planned 250-foot high triumphal arch near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, provided extra precautions are taken to alert pilots.
