Deliveries of the Boeing 737 Max will resume before the end of the year, the planemaker’s boss has said. Dave Calhoun, president and chief executive of Boeing, was speaking at the presentation of the firm’s third-quarter results – which took place on the eve of the second anniversary of the first fatal crash involving the 737 Max. Mr Calhoun said that Boeing has 450 of the 737 Max jets in storage. But even if deliveries resume this year, it expects airline customers to take only about half of the stored jets by the end of 2021. Eddie Wilson, chief executive of the airlines’s main operating division, expects the airline to be using the Boeing 737 Max in scheduled service from early next year.
