Boeing is reportedly considering phasing out some old-school physical tests and relying more on digital simulation analysis in order to “streamline“ the flight safety certification of its latest long-range 777X and future jets.
At the height of the scandal surrounding two fatal 737 MAX crashes – and just as the company CEO admitted they had made a “mistake“ by not properly informing both customers and regulators about the known issue – Reuters has learned that Boeing is seeking to cut hours of airborne 777X tests during the year-long flight trials.
