These measures go beyond the call of duty as first announced by the US FAA. The FAA forced Boeing to change the computer system inside the plane and required pilots to go through extensive flight simulation training.
Canada has been one of the last countries to ground Boeing MAX after a grounded order from the EU, UK, and Australia came forward. The planes have been grounded since March 2019 following the crash of the Lion Air flight near Jakarta in October 2018 and the Ethiopian Airlines flight on March 10, 2019, resulting in the death of over 346 passengers.
An investigation into the crash determined that the cause of the crashes was a faulty computer system that pushed the plane nose downward in flight and pilots weren’t able to overwrite it.
Other planes have been grounded, but MAX suspension has never lasted this long. Prior to Max crashes, the CAA has typically gone along with the approvals of other countries with zero oversight into the safety of the aircraft. But the scrutiny of the MAX may usher in a new era of more review before the initial test flight before these aircraft.
The Chinese Government was the first to ground MAX after the crashes.
Air Canada informed that it would resume Boeing 737 MAX flight operations on FEB 1.
