Boeing 737 MAX 7 Receives FAA Type Certification After Eight Years
The Boeing 737 MAX 7 has finally been cleared for commercial service, more than eight years after the smallest member of the 737 MAX family first took to the skies. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) granted Boeing an amended type certificate for the aircraft on Monday, bringing one of the manufacturer's longest-running certification programs to an end. The regulator has also added the 737-7 to Boeing's production certificate , allowing the company to manufacture the aircraft under its approved production system.
