The Federal Aviation Administration certified the Boeing 737 MAX 10 on October 20, allowing the aircraft to be delivered to airlines globally. This approval was granted through an amended type certificate and updated Boeing’s production authorization. The certification followed safety changes required by federal law and recommendations from the National Transportation Safety Board, including an enhanced angle-of-attack sensor in the flight-control system.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The certification makes the 737 MAX 10 eligible for delivery, moving a 1,555-aircraft order backlog closer to service. Boeing stated that more than 30 customers have ordered the model, which represents over 30% of the MAX program’s current order book. The increased capacity of the jet may allow airlines to spread a flight’s costs across more passengers.
