Boeing certification for the B737 max 7,10 could be delayed once more until 2023.
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) informed Boeing (BA.N) that it has not finished the essential work required to certify the 737 MAX 7 by December.

According to a letter from the FAA seen by Reuters, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) informed Boeing (BA.N) that it has not finished the essential work required to certify the 737 MAX 7 by December.
Boeing has until December to obtain regulatory permission for both the MAX 10, which is slightly larger than the 737 MAXs currently in operation and the MAX 7, which is a smaller variation. Boeing needs to comply with new current cockpit-alerting rules that would considerably slow down the planes’ entry into service unless it receives a delay from Congress.
Wicker suggested last week that Boeing be given until September 2024 to obtain clearance for the two new types. He intends to include the proposal in a yearly defense bill. But it’s uncertain whether Congress would be open to approving the plan.
After two 737 MAX crashes in which 346 people died and the best-selling aircraft was grounded for 20 months, certification reform legislation was passed in 2020. This legislation includes the additional cockpit alerting criteria.

Boeing has achieved a significant milestone by providing NASA with the second core stage of the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket.
This crucial component, crafted at NASA’s Michoud Assembly Facility (MAF), is set to propel the Artemis II crew into lunar orbit, marking humanity’s return to deep space after a 50-year hiatus.
The monumental Boeing-built rocket stage, the largest element of the Artemis II mission, will embark on a journey aboard the Pegasus barge, traveling 900 miles to NASA’s Kennedy Space Center.

Upon arrival, it will be meticulously integrated with other essential Artemis II components, including the upper stage, solid rocket boosters, and NASA’s Orion spacecraft within the iconic Vehicle Assembly Building. This intricate integration process is a vital step toward the eagerly anticipated Artemis II launch, slated for 2025.
“Boeing-built products helped land humankind on the moon in 1969, and we’re proud to continue that legacy through the Artemis generation,” remarked Dave Dutcher, vice president and program manager for Boeing’s SLS program. “Together, with NASA and our industry partners and suppliers, we are building the world’s most capable rocket and paving the way to deep space through America’s rocket factory in New Orleans.”

The delivery of Core Stage 2 marks a significant achievement in the evolution of the SLS rocket. Towering over 200 feet and powered by four RS-25 engines, this core stage, coupled with two solid-fueled booster rockets, will generate a staggering 8.8 million pounds of thrust. This immense power is crucial to launching Artemis II and future missions into the vast expanse of space.
The SLS rocket stands unparalleled in its capability to transport both crew and substantial cargo to the moon and beyond in a single launch. Its extraordinary capacity will facilitate the delivery of human-rated spacecraft, habitats, and scientific missions to destinations including the moon and Mars, ushering in a new era of space exploration.
