Boeing’s commercial airplane chief has confirmed that the planemaker has finalized the design to address an engine anti-ice system that has been causing significant delays in the certification of the 737 MAX 7. The issue with the anti-ice system could potentially lead to engine overheating and failure, prompting the urgent need for a fix. Stephanie Pope, Boeing’s commercial airplane chief, mentioned that progress is being made on the engineering front to rectify the problem. However, no formal timeline was provided for when the fix will be completed, but Pope speculated that it could be in the early to mid of next year. The planemaker is expected to conduct a flight test later this year to validate the solution. This development marks a crucial step towards addressing the lingering certification challenges that have plagued the 737 MAX 7.
