to withdraw MAX 7 exemption request"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p>Boeing&#8217;s said on Monday it was withdrawing a request for a key safety exemption that could have allowed U.S. regulators to speed up certification of its coming <strong>737 MAX 7<\/strong>, in the latest fallout from the planemaker&#8217;s ongoing crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lawmakers had been pressuring the planemaker to withdraw the petition following a harrowing mid-air cabin blowout on Jan. 5 that has exposed numerous safety and quality control concerns at one of the world&#8217;s two major jetmakers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The withdrawal, first reported by Reuters, throws the anticipated timeline for certifying Boeing&#8217;s MAX 7 and the larger, better-selling MAX 10 into further doubt because it may force Boeing to make design changes more quickly than it had planned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2024\/01\/southwest-airlines-removes-max-7-from-2024-plans-cuts-delivery-forecast-from-boeing.html\">Southwest Airlines removes MAX 7 from 2024 plans, cuts delivery forecast from Boeing<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CEO David Calhoun withdrew the exemption request after being asked to do so in Capitol Hill meetings last week as Boeing grapples with growing safety concerns following the mid-air incident on a 737 MAX 9 jet operated by Alaska Airlines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boeing originally proposed the MAX 7 exemption run through May 2026 &#8211; the time period the company believed necessary to develop and certify design changes, but approval of the request was thrown into doubt after the Alaska Airlines accident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;While we are confident that the proposed time-limited exemption for that system follows established FAA processes to ensure safe operation, we will instead incorporate an engineering solution that will be completed during the certification process,&#8221; Boeing said in a statement, without providing an estimate of how long that would take.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The MAX 10 will also require design changes if an exemption is not sought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With information from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/aerospace-defense\/boeing-under-microscope-safety-issues-it-reports-results-2024-01-29\/\"
