Boeing Delivers First 737 MAX Since Grounding
United Airlines Holdings (NASDAQ: UAL) on Tuesday became the first airline to take delivery on a Boeing (NYSE: BA) 737 MAX since the plane was recertified last month, the first step in a long recovery for Boeing and the troubled airplane.
The 737 MAX was cleared to fly in November after 20 months on the ground following a pair of fatal crashes. Boeing's new challenge is to place the more than 400 planes manufactured during the halt but not yet delivered at a time when airlines are cutting back service and looking to cut costs.
