The aircraft is the second most ordered variant of the MAX family.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boeing now has an order book for more than 700 737 MAX 10 aircraft across more than 15 different airlines, including United Airlines, with more than 200 units ordered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

United Airlines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With one of the largest 737 MAX fleets within the US, United Airlines<\/a> is eager to receive the largest version of the MAX aircraft as its 1st aircraft has been spotted in Seattle with its white and blue livery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The registration will be N27753 and serial number 7935, which will eventually be the 1st aircraft type for United Airlines <\/a>and the third aircraft type manufactured by the Chicago-based manufacturer. However, given the current uncertainty surrounding the certification of the 737 MAX 10, it seems United Airlines <\/a>might not be welcoming the aircraft anytime soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Federal Aviation Administration <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When the Aircraft Safety and Certification Reform Act became law in late 2020, it demanded updates to any new aircraft certifications issued. Back then, Boeing managed to negotiate a two-year delay in enforcement, expecting that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) would sign off on its MAX 7 and MAX 10 variants before the end of this year. However, that extended deadline is running out and Boeing will soon be out of options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Chicago-based manufacturer hopes to avoid going through the procedure of upgrading the flight deck to meet the new safety certification needs. Boeing might also ask for yet another extension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chief Executive Officer David Calhoun stated:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

“If I lose the fight to avoid upgrading the flight deck, I lose the fight, and the MAX 10 would not be developed.\u201d Congress could decide not to grant another extension and order to change the current flight deck for the Boeing 737 MAX 10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still, it would need plenty of time and financial prices from several parties involved, including Boeing and the airlines, as they re-implement additional training for pilots to operate a new flight deck on the MAX 10. If Congress chooses to provide another extension, the certification of the aircraft continues to go around in circles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
