A noticeable exception - The Ethiopian Civil Aviation Authority.
Not really, that would be a conflict of interest given the potential litigation.

These aviation groups, it is really little difference in ICAO/EASA with Airbus and Thales keeping it all contained.

Looking at that group, I see very little consensus in a 90 day timeframe. After being involved in the RNAV/RNPAPCH/RNPAR aircraft validation/certification issues with ICAO vs FAA, this is just not going to go smoothly.

It's also worth noticing that Boeing hasn't logged a single order for any aircraft type since the 737 Max was grounded.
This is a bit misleading these days, as Boeing and Airbus now have a new accounting method (ASC 606) to follow.
In yesterdays Boeing guidance call, they stated this, noting actual sales/cancellations are counted now, (instead of simply adjusting backlog or offsetting new order counts) so their net loss is 200 orders for 737 and 10 787 so far for the year, while Airbus net loss so far is 58...Same as before, just a different way to account for things.
