According to Reuters, Boeing will seemingly only have until December to prove the airworthiness of the 737 MAX 7 and MAX 10 to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Senator Roger Wicker (R-MS) proposed extending Boeing’s deadline until September 2024 by attaching an amendment to the U.S. Senate’s annual defense bill. However, the latest version of the bill allegedly doesn’t include the crucial amendment.

The Boeing 737 MAX was initially grounded after serious design flaws led to two crashes that killed 346 people. Since then, 737 MAX airliners have been allowed to re-enter service by the FAA conditionally. The country’s civil aviation regulation agency required Boeing to make several significant changes to the 737 MAX before it could be properly recertified.
