One year after the cessation of operations of the Boeing 737 Max plane, which was seen as one of the best businesses and equipment, airlines and the industry still feel the economic effects, added to the additional expenses that the manufacturer has had to make above of the $ 18 billion.

According to company reports, on March 13, 2019, the day the United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) decided to land these planes, there were 371 teams operating worldwide.

It was last year when Ethiophian Airlines and Lion Air, which used the B737 Max equipment, had fatal accidents that killed more than 300 people.

After several investigations, it was determined that the incidents that occurred were due to the software or security system designed to force the nose of the plane in case it climbs too fast and runs the risk of getting stuck.

Boeing has been working on a solution for the software of his system for more than a year and some test flights have been carried out, although the authorities have not concluded his return.

Globally, the B737 Max was operated by 48 airlines that flew around the world, which caused countless demands on the manufacturer by companies as they had to leave one of their most profitable aircraft on the ground.

Launching

At launch, Boeing noted that this aircraft would give companies cheaper seats per mile and reduce fuel use by 8 percent, as well as emissions of polluting gases by 50 percent.
