Boeing sees FAA approving software fix in May, Max ungrounding in July: Sources

CHICAGO/SEATTLE - Boeing Co has told some 737 Max owners it is targeting US Federal Aviation Administration approval of its software fix as early as the third week of May and the ungrounding of the aircraft around mid-July, two sources told Reuters.

None of the sources, who were not authorised to speak publicly, said they knew for sure how long the re-certification process will take. On April 1, the FAA said that once it received Boeing's completed software package it would run a rigorous safety review before approving the software for installation.

This process is separate from an FAA-led international review panel, which the agency has said may not be completed before the Max flying suspension is lifted.
