Safety engineers and inspectors will use the early notification to further analyze the incident,&#8221; the federal agency said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The FAA is using the data to closely monitor MAX performance and try to detect any problems early. The agency has never before conducted real-time scrutiny of a single aircraft model, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-boeing-737-max\/u-s-faa-tracking-all-boeing-737-max-airplanes-via-satellite-data-idUKKBN2AJ2FG\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener

already date to resume flights with 737 MAX.<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To do so, it has contracted Aireon, based in McLean, Virginia, to use a system called Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) to track the MAXs in flight, transmitting aircraft data every half-second to the FAA&#8217;s Technical Center near Atlantic City, New Jersey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ADS-B is a more accurate tracking system than radar and also transmits more data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All new Airbus or Boeing aircraft are equipped with an ADS-B transmitter that continuously sends each aircraft&#8217;s identity, its exact GPS position, trajectory, ground speed, altitude and vertical rate of climb or descent, as well as any indication from the aircraft&#8217;s systems of an emergency event, such as a code indicating an automatic Traffic Collision Avoidance System (TCAS) warning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the MAX tracking contract with the FAA, whose scope the agency has expanded after an initial 10-week trial, Aireon will provide daily reports on flights that took off the previous day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For each MAX aircraft, it will report how many times it took off, the duration of the flights and any anomalies detected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-post-grid uagb-post-grid  uagb-post__image-position-top
