Boeing has been pushing the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to speed
up the return of its 737 Max jet, which has been grounded for eight months
in the wake of two fatal crashes.
Reports by The New York Times and Reuters suggest that Boeing has pushed FAA
officials to speed up testing and permit early deliveries of the plane.
In response, FAA chief Stephen Dickson posted a video to staff where he
acknowledged "pressure" to accelerate to process, but encouraged them to
resist.
This week, airline pilots accused Boeing of "arrogance" for pushing for a
swift return, while American Airlines flight crew begged union officials to
stop them being assigned to the plane.
Boeing said Saturday morning that the FAA and other regulators have sole
control of the timetable for the jet's return.
