There are now 265 Boeing 737 MAXes in airline service, according to data reviewed by LNA.
There are 263 MAXes in storage that appear to be previously delivered airplanes. This number is artificially inflated by the 95 MAXes that are grounded in China.
China's regulator hasn't recertified the MAX, a move widely considered political due to the long-running trade war between the US and China initiated by the Trump Administration.
When the MAX was grounded in March 2019, there were 387 in service. The math indicates 147 MAXes were

In yet another blow to Boeing, the Federal Aviation Administration last month formally denied the jet maker permission to move forward with a key step in certifying its forthcoming giant widebody airplane, the 777X.
In a sternly worded letter dated May 13, which was reviewed by The Seattle Times, the FAA warned Boeing it may have to increase the number of test flights planned and that certification realistically is now more than two years out, probably in late 2023.
That could push the jet's entry into commercial service into early 2024, four years later than originally planned.
The FAA cited a long litany of concerns, including a serious flight control incident during a test flight on Dec. 8, 2020, when the plane experienced an "uncommanded pitch event" — meaning the nose of the aircraft...

New images of MH370 debris have been released by wreck hunter Blaine Gibson who is responsible for finding or securing the majority of the Boeing 777.
Mr. Gibson says many ask him if he was happy to find No Step, (below) the first piece of 370 debris he discovered.
"No I was not, finding aircraft debris from a crash makes one sad. I felt a sense of accomplishment and responsibility to ensure the debris was handed in and investigated.
The families and flying public want and deserve the truth whatever it may be, and I hope I can do a small part to contribute to that. Happy would be if I found 239...

"On April 23, the Company signed a firm order for 30 E195-E2 jets with an undisclosed customer, with deliveries starting in 2022.
The 30 firm orders will be included in Embraer's second quarter backlog," Embraer said in its April 29 earnings release.
Embraer delayed E-Jet deliveries because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Thin backlogs for the E2 pre-date the pandemic. This order, with deliveries starting next year, illustrates Embraer's...

The CBC says private aircraft continue to operate international flights without the need for their passengers to spend a three-day hotel quarantine when they arrive.
The network combed FlightAware to find the private aircraft that operated into airports outside the four quarantine hubs to which international airline flights are restricted (Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto and Montreal.)
Not surprisingly, two-thirds of the flights, 572, went to…

The US Air Force is looking at the possibility of using fighter jets armed with both air-to-air missiles and a heavy loadout of stand-off cruise missiles as bomber aircraft able to self-escort in contested airspace and conduct devastating missile strikes.
This week, the 85th Test and Evaluation Squadron at Eglin Air Force Base armed an F-15E Strike Eagle with five AGM-158 Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missiles (JASSMs), more than twice what the plane would normally carry.
The unusually heavy loadout was part of…

Twelve years after an Air France Airbus plane crashed into the Atlantic killing 228 people, a court has ruled that the airline and manufacturer should go on trial for involuntary manslaughter.
The Paris court overturned a ruling two years ago and backed recommendations from prosecutors.
Flight AF447 from Rio de Janeiro in Brazil to Paris went down on 1 June 2009, killing everyone on board.
Investigators found the pilots had lost control when air-speed sensors froze.
Both the airline and manufacturer plan to...
