The FAA may do this, but will other countries follow, or require full recertification?
- Here we go again - Boeing the wizard of EXTEND and PRETEND. Extend the product life, first flown 1995. ADD new, untried engine model, ADD new design (& folding) wings, STRETCH the whole thing bigger, and let's PRETEND its the same aircraft type as 1995 model.
Good, that will save the airlines some training costs.
So what? Nothing else in your life to do?
