    First Bombardier, now Airbus. If they could build a product that would not fall off the sky, perhaps they wouldn't need to meddle in the politics of other countries? Where's the SEC in all of this?

    FAA has become a third world level agency now. Basically no testing is done - Boeing says something, they accept it as fact. As a result many non-US agencies don't recognize FAA as an authority any longer and rightfully so.

    Boeing CEO ready to cancel 737 MAX 10 unless Congress acts

    Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun said he’s ready to cancel the 737 MAX 10 program if Congress doesn’t extend a regulatory deadline that would allow the jet to enter service without an upgrade to the 737 crew-alerting system.

    Canceling plans for the largest member of the MAX family — which has about 640 orders with prospects for more, including from Delta — would be a big blow to the MAX program that would curtail future job growth at the Renton assembly plant.

    It would leave Boeing with no viable competitive plane against the successful Airbus A321neo.

    Calhoun made the declaration, which is clearly aimed at putting pressure on Congress,
    in an exclusive advance Q&A with trade magazine Aviation Week before the Farnborough Air Show.
