The 737MAX has now been recertified by the Federal Aviation Administration after being grounded for more than 20 months (as of November 2020) due to 2 fatal airplane crashes: Lion Air flight 610 and Ethiopian Airlines flight 302.
In my opinion, I am very contented to hear that the 737MAX, regardless of its past, will be flying soon again and many airlines that previously ordered the MAX as one of their main aircraft can start making a profit from it again. However, I know that many of you will still disagree because of its disastrous past but don't worry, I believe that the engineers over at Boeing learned their lesson because no company, especially Boeing would want to get sued a couple of billion dollars again.
If you are still not convinced, I can ensure you that the FAA did an extensive check and checked that all the faults that led to the demise of the 2 airplanes were properly fixed, but if the name Boeing 737MAX8, 9, or 10 just makes you feel scared of flying, there is no need to worry as Boeing renamed the MAX series to Boeing 737-8, -9 or -10.
Pretty soon, if other countries follow suit and approve the MAX for operations, it will definitely be one of the biggest narrow-body short-haul airplanes on the market due to its high efficiency and low operating costs and also, with the MAX issues out of the way, Boeing can finally concentrate on making the Boeing 797 and the 777X!
Do you think that the MAX getting recertified good?
