into the country, despite its US counterpart giving the green light to the plane&#8217;s operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>See also: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/en\/2020\/11\/american-airlines-says-first-boeing-737-max-flights-in-december.html\">American Airlines says first Boeing 737 MAX flights in December.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>China, with a fleet of 97 Boeing 737 Max aircraft, grounded the planes on March 11, 2019, becoming the first country to do so after the accidents, reported China Daily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FAA approval only covers flights within the U.S. Flights to or within other countries, such as China and Canada, will need approval from their civil aviation regulators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>See also: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/en\/2020\/11\/faa-authorizes-boeing-737-max-to-fly-again.html\">FAA authorizes Boeing 737 MAX to fly again.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>China&#8217;s Civil Aviation Administration said there has been no change in its position from late October, when Feng Zhenglin, director of the administration, said at a press conference that China will ensure that safe and reliable modifications have been made before considering allowing planes to return to the country&#8217;s airspace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before that, he said, three conditions must be met: Updated designs must pass the airworthiness inspection; pilots must receive adequate training for them; and the cause of accidents must be clear and the modifications made must be shown to be effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Engineer Shu Ping, director of the Aviation Safety Institute of the Academy of Civil Aviation Science and Technology, indicated that the U.S. approval is a basis for discussion about the possibility of China allowing the plane to return to carry passengers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Canadian Transport Minister Marc Garneau said the 737 Max will remain on the ground until several requirements are met.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2
