The U.S. government is preparing to approve Boeing’s 737 MAX 10 for passenger service after years of delays, an Associated Press source says. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy plans to announce the decision Tuesday during a visit to Boeing’s Everett, Washington manufacturing plant. Introduced in 2017, the aircraft’s certification was slowed by technical and safety-related concerns. The approval would be a key step in Boeing’s efforts to rebuild its reputation. The MAX 10 is designed to carry more passengers while using less fuel, targeting airlines facing high jet-fuel costs.
