Boeing has completed 96 test flights of 737 Max aircraft equipped with the flight control software update it hopes will persuade regulators to lift the aircraft’s grounding.

Chief executive Dennis Muilenburg says those flights equate to 159h of time in the air for the tweaked software.

Boeing expects to conduct more test flights “in the coming weeks”, adds Muilenburg, who spoke on 11 April during a leadership forum at the George W. Bush Presidential Centre in Dallas.

“We were devastated by the recent Ethiopian Airlines flight 302 and Lion Air [flight] 610 tragedies,” he says. “All of us feel the immense gravity across our company.”

He does not mention any timeline for when Boeing expects the update will be certified and the grounding lifted.
