The Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia (CAAM) has again allowed the Boeing 737 MAX to operate on Malaysian territory after a ban of more than two years due to crashes of the model in 2018 and 2019 that claimed the lives of 346 people.
CAAM lifted the aircraft’s veto by launching a new safety directive applicable to local and foreign air operators. The Malaysian regulator monitored the approval processes by Boeing and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and accepted the necessary requirements for the return to service of the 737 MAX set by the FAA.
So far no airline operates Boeing 737 MAX aircraft in the country, only Malaysia Airlines has 25 aircraft of the MAX 8 and MAX 10 versions on order, and despite several operators are canceling or reducing their commitments, the Malaysian national carrier is still keeping its order.
Last week the future of the MAX had received another major boost after the ban was also lifted in India.
