This is a positive development and a morale boost for Boeing, which has been battered by a seeming unending drama of bad news regarding the 737 MAX. Nonetheless, the 777X will be an important test for Boeing’s strained relationship with the FAA, which has stripped the company of its organizational authority temporarily.Â
