Boeing Co. is reportedly nearing the end of regulatory hurdles for resuming deliveries of its 787 Dreamliner after a nearly two-year pause over some production defects.
The U.S. planemaker is “very close” to restarting deliveries of the wide-body jet, its commercial airplanes chief Stan Deal said at a news conference ahead of the Farnborough International Airshow near London, according to a Wall Street Journal report.
There will be no “extra innings added” with regard to Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) reviews for the 787 Dreamliner, Deal reportedly said.
Boeing is also likely to receive new orders for its 737 MAX 10 and isn’t going to cancel this plane, Deal reportedly said, even as it faces a legally mandated year-end deadline to update its cockpit systems….
