A report dated October 26 says Boeing’s 737 MAX 10 has received certification. The supplied material does not include a statement from a regulator or a certification document, so the certification claim cannot be confirmed here.

Key details

  • The MAX 10 first flew more than five years before the report’s publication date.
  • The report describes the MAX 10 as having more than 1,500 orders and a range of 3,100 nautical miles.
  • The report says Alaska Airlines plans to offer lie-flat seats on the MAX 10 and that Delta Air Lines has ordered the model.

The report says the MAX 10 has more than 1,500 orders.

Why it matters

Certification would allow airlines to move toward introducing the MAX 10, a model the report connects with Alaska Airlines’ planned lie-flat seating and Delta Air Lines’ order. The material does not establish that certification has occurred.

What happens next

The supplied material gives no certification timeline or further milestone.
