737 MAX Test Flight Reportedly Delayed
Boeing's (NYSE: BA) goal to return its troubled 737 MAX to service by mid-year could be in jeopardy after the company has reportedly pushed back its planned test flight for regulators until May at the earliest.
The 737 MAX was grounded worldwide in March 2019 after a pair of fatal accidents involving the plane. Boeing has missed multiple self-imposed deadlines to return the plane to service but seemed confident on hitting its latest goal. But the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic appears to have complicated matters, with the AFP News Service reporting late Tuesday that a planned test flight has been delayed until May.
