FAA chief upbeat after flying the Boeing 737 Max, reiterates no firm timeline on approvals The head of the Federal Aviation Administration was upbeat about Boeing’s 737 Max after testing out the plane on Wednesday, the latest turn in the process of getting the jetliners flying again after two fatal crashes. FAA Administrator Steve Dickson, a former commercial and military pilot, last year said he wouldn’t clear the planes for service unless he flew the jet himself. “I liked what I saw,” Dickson told reporters, adding that he hasn’t flown a 737 in almost 15 years. “I felt that the training prepared me to be very comfortable.” He flew the 737 Max 7, the smallest model in the family.
