The European aviation authority EASA gave the green light for the commercial re-use of the Boeing 22-Max after around 737 months. Authority chief Patrick Ky said that after a "thorough examination", the re-approval had been granted.
However, there are some conditions attached to this: For example, technical changes must be made to the software and hardware and additional pilot training must be carried out. As a result, every pilot has to complete special training on a full flight simulator, among other things.
The controversial third sensor is not yet mandatory. This should only become mandatory at a later point in time. However, the Max 10 variant must already have this ex works. With the other models, it is not yet clear when the retrofitting will take place. Boeing has yet to develop it.
EASA boss Patrick Ky emphasized that the decision was made independently. He also rules out that there was pressure from Boeing or the US FAA. When the European airlines can actually use the model is still open. First of all, the requirements of EASA must be met. So it will take a few more weeks.
