Boeing MAX Flying Again…? Technology / Aviation (dostęp otwarty)

  • carry out test flights – przeprowadzać loty testowe / sprawdzające
  • rigorous process – dokładny / szczegółowy / wymagający proces
  • update software – poprawione / zaktualizowane oprogramowanie
  • training requirements – wymagania szkoleniowe

Sources within Boeing and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) say that 737 MAX recertification test flights  could be carried out next Monday. This means the series of flights and this upcoming recertification activity will primarily apply to flying within the United States.

Boeing spokesman says: Our team continues to work closely with global regulators on the rigorous process they have laid out for certifying the updated software and training requirements. The regulators determine the ultimate timeline.

  • on the track to win the clearance – na dobrej drodze do uzyskania pozwolenia / zezwolenia / dopuszczenia
  • carrier – przewoźnik
  • set the process ustalić procedurę / wyznaczyć, etc.
  • demand design changes – wymagać zmian projektowych

However, civil aviation authorities outside the United States may set their own recertification processes for the aircraft – meaning potentially different timelines for carriers outside the US. European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) is just one example of another agency that will want to carry out its own recertification process.  The Seattle Times reports that regulators in Europe and Canada have demanded design changes to the flight control systems on the 737 MAX. These changes go beyond fixing the Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System (MCAS).

  • identify a number of issues requiring redesign – wskazać wiele obszarów wymagających zmian projektowych
  • conduct own independent safety assessment – przeprowadzić niezależną ocenę bezpieczeństwa

EASA and Transport Canada have identified a number of issues requiring redesign. The two regulators will conduct their own independent safety assessments of the MAX recertification rather than automatically following the lead of the FAA.
