Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Chief Steve Dickson conducted a nearly two-hour evaluation flight at the controls of a Boeing 737 MAX on Wednesday, a milestone for the jet to win approval to resume flying after two fatal crashes, Reuters<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dickson, a former military and commercial pilot, and other FAA and Boeing pilots landed shortly before 11 a.m. local time (1800 GMT) at King County International Airport – also known as Boeing Field – in the Seattle area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI like what I saw on the flight,\u201d Dickson told a news conference afterwards, but said he was not ready to give the jet a clean bill of health, with FAA reviews still ongoing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are not to the point yet where we have completed the process,\u201d Dickson said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If Dickson\u2019s flight and broader reviews go well, the FAA is seen as likely to lift its U.S. grounding order in November, sources said on Wednesday, putting the MAX on a path to resume commercial service potentially before year-end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
