EASA completes 737 Max test flights



The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has completed its test flights of the Boeing 737 Max aircraft ahead of its possible recertification and return to service later this year.

The test flights took place over the course of three days this week in Vancouver, Canada, due to coronavirus-related travel restrictions, the European regulatory agency says on 11 September. EASA did not say how many flights took place during that time, or what scenarios were tested.

“EASA has been working steadily, in close cooperation with the FAA and Boeing, to return the Boeing 737 Max aircraft to service as soon as possible, but only once we are convinced it is safe,” EASA says.


The Federal Aviation Administration completed its own flight tests of the type on 1 July, but there is still no indication of when the jet will be released to fly again in revenue service. The aircraft’s recertification flights were an important milestone in the process to bring the troubled aircraft back, but numerous steps are still required.

EASA says it is now analysing the data collected during the flights ahead of the Joint Operations Evaluation Board (JOEB), scheduled to begin in London next week. The JOEB is composed of pilots from US and international 737 Max operators and is tasked with evaluating 737 Max pilot training. It will send information and data to the FAA’s Flight Standardisation Board, which will make the FAA’s final training recommendations.

The 737 Max was grounded worldwide in March 2019 after two separate accidents killed 346 passengers and crew. The aircraft’s new Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System (MCAS) was at fault in both crashes.

In August, the FAA suggested four key design changes to the beleaguered aircraft in order to address the safety issues that led to the crashes. The proposed Airworthiness Directive (AD) includes proposals that will enhance the safety of the aircraft as well as the ability of the cockpit crew to deal with potential issues. The public comment period for the proposed AD ends later this month.

Boeing also said in August that it intends to deliver a majority of its 450-strong 737 Max stockpile within one year of resuming deliveries of the still-grounded jet. Boeing accumulated those aircraft because it continued manufacturing the Max through most of 2019 despite being unable to deliver the jets due to the worldwide grounding.

What Is Boeing's Most Profitable Plane?

Did you know that the Boeing 777 is one of the plane maker's most profitable airplanes? Photo source: Boeing. Everyone knows that Boeing is a plane maker. That's what they do. But Boeing makes a lot of planes, and a lot of different kinds of planes -- from the ultrapopular 737 to the iconic 747 jumbo jet to the paradigm-shifting 787 "composite" Dreamliner. At last count, the company had something on the order of 5,800 plane orders stacked up in backlog, awaiting construction and delivery. Any time Boeing sells one of these planes, that's good news for investors because, on one hand, it's new revenue for Boeing. On the other, it's a sale that won't be going to archrival Airbus. One key question that Boeing investors might want to ask, though, is this: Which of these planes makes the most profit for Boeing? That's what we're going to look into today. What Boeing tells us When it comes to which of its planes earn the most money for Boeing, the company isn't in any rush to spell that out for investors. Here's just a sampling of how Boeing "explains" this, drawn from its 10-K filing with the SEC: Our Commercial Airplanes segment predominantly uses program accounting to account for cost of sales related to its programs. Program accounting is applicable to products manufactured for delivery under production-type contracts where profitability is realized over multiple contracts and years. Under program accounting, inventoriable production costs, program tooling and other non-recurring costs, and warranty costs are accumulated and charged to cost of sales by program instead of by individual units or contracts. Clear as mud, right? Of course, the upshot of all this is probably well understood by Boeing investors. Basically, the company tallies up what it expects to spend developing, building, and warranting a particular airplane model, estimates the number of units of that model that it expects to sell, subtracts the former from the latter, and divides by the estimate -- to arrive at an estimate of the profit earned from selling each unit of airplane. But that doesn't tell us which specific airplanes are the most profitable for Boeing.

Boeing and Lockheed Martin will team up

Boeing and Lockheed Martin will team up — again — to compete for a contract to build the US Air Force’s long-range strike bomber (LRS-B), according to a Boeing media release.

Boeing will act as the prime contractor and Lockheed Martin will be Boeing’s “primary teammate” on the project, says the release.

The relationship revives an earlier Boeing-Lockheed partnership announced in 2008. The companies cancelled that “teaming agreement” in 2010, saying they needed to better understand the government’s goals for the project.

Boeing-Lockheed Martin will go up against competitor Northrop Grumman, which makes the B-2 stealth bomber.

Boeing contributed to the B-2 project, building the outboard portion of the wing, the aft-center fuselage section, the landing gear, the fuel system and the weapons delivery section, according to Boeing’s website.

Air Force officials have said they intend to build 80 to 100 LRS-Bs and have targeted the mid-2020s as when the aircraft will be operational. Details of the programme are classified.

The USAF’s acquisition strategy emphasises the use of proven technology, meaning they want to keep costs down by minimising development of new avionics, engine and airframe technology.

“Building on decades of manned and unmanned weapon systems experience, we’re proud to bring our collection of technologies, capabilities and resources to affordably design, develop, produce and sustain the bomber program," says Orlando Carvalho, executive vice president at Lockheed Martin Aeronautics, in the release.

“The team will be able to produce unique and affordable solutions that could not be achieved without partnering,” adds the release.

Boeing’s history of building bombers dates to the B-17 and B-29, which flew during the Second World War, followed by the Cold War-era B-47, which was the USA's first jet-powered bomber.

Boeing’s eight-engine, swept-wing B-52 first flew in 1952 and is still in service with the US Air Force.

Preapering For Boeing breakthroughs in aircraft maintenance

By William Edward Boeing was founded in 1916, and the last time the U.S. state of Washington in the state of one of the world's largest manufacturer of civil and military aircraft from the Boeing announces the development of iPad applications for commercial passenger aircraft maintenance.

 According to the news from Donanimhaber website, the company used for many years 747, 787 Dreamliner, 777 and 737 aircraft models prepared for the iPad applications that aircraft maintenance technicians working actively developed specifically for time. All types of aircraft manuals, part numbers, applications that can provide instant access to inventory information, and maintenance histories, technical problems to solve in a short time and at a much lower cost levels will help.

 With this development, the iPad is Apple's tablet computer, its popularity continues to increase in the airline industry. As you may recall earlier next to civilian agencies, such as American Airlines and United Airlines in the U.S. air force has changed with the iPad bulky flight bags, provided the pilots a great convenience.
