Head of US Federal Aviation Administration says cannot commit to timetable for grounded Boeing 737 Max to return to the skies
Acting head of US Federal Aviation Administration Daniel Elwell says,"We can't be driven by some arbitrary timeline."
There was "enthusiastic agreement to continue the dialogue," he said, but acknowledged that "each country has to make its own decision." Investigators have focused on the MAX's anti-stall Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System in enquiries into the two deadly crashes. Michel Merluzeau of Air Insight Research said American officials could end the 737 MAX's grounding toward the end of summer, with authorities in other countries following suit "several months" later.Training using simulators
Nicholas Robinson, director-general of civil aviation, told Canadian media the training was a "possible option" but added it was too early to say if it would be mandatory.
