Boeing to keep building 737 Max as it scrambles to get planes back in the air
|New York (CNN Business)Boeing will temporarily stop delivering 737 Max jets to airlines while it determines what caused two of those planes to crash. But it will continue building the planes.
The 737 Max is the company’s bestselling jet and remains in huge demand, despite two recent fatal crashes.
Boeing (BA) announced its decision to halt deliveries late Thursday. The planes were grounded for an indefinite period globally this week in the wake of the incidents — a crash in October by Lion Air in Indonesia, and a crash Sunday involving Ethiopian Airlines.
