Boeing has been instructed by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to address quality issues before it can increase production of its 737 MAX planes. This decision follows a three-hour meeting between Boeing officials, including outgoing CEO Dave Calhoun, and FAA Administrator Mike Whitaker. The FAA will monitor Boeing’s progress based on performance metrics set by the company. This requirement for a turnaround plan was prompted by a fuselage panel blowout during an Alaska Airlines flight in January. The FAA will continue to cap Boeing’s production for at least several months and plans to approve every plane that comes off the production lines.
