Boeing has restarted production of the troubled 737 Max, even though the Federal Aviation Administration has yet to give its approval for the jet to fly again, and as demand for new jets has ground to a near halt along with demand for air travel
New York Boeing restarted production of the troubled 737 Max Wednesday, even though the Federal Aviation Administration has yet to give its approval for the jet to fly again, and as demand for new jets has ground to a near halt along with demand for air travel.
The announcement came on the same day that Boeing notified 6,770 workers they were losing their jobs. Another 5,520 workers have taken voluntary buyout offers. Airlines' move to cancel or delay the delivery of new jets in the face of the industry's crisis caused by the Covid-19 pandemic has forced Boeing to greatly reduce its production plans for at least the next several years.
