Related question: how does regulatory approval of planes work, worldwide? I read a few times that the FAA had approved the new plane too quickly, but don't other regulators have their word?
- Svip 8y agoFAA have (or had) such a good record, that other regulators, like EASA, simply trusted a FAA certification. In the same way, FAA trusts an EASA certification for an Airbus plane.
- peeters 8y agoBilateral certification agreements. Canada and U.S. have one as well (it goes both ways): https://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/civilaviation/standards/int-baa-usa-2000-3676.htm https://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/civilaviation/standards/int-baa-usa.... It's good in theory (cutting down on a giant amount of repeat work), as long as both certifying bodies maintain their standards and don't get politicized.
- SilasX 8y agoWell, they're working hard to change that, I guess...
- ricardobeat 8y agoNot only that, but apparently they also delegated most of the certification duties to Boeing itself.
