Mr. Muilenbergs "denial strategy " might work with shareholders (for the moment). It might also work with the FAA that sits in the same rocking boat. I sincerly doubt that it will work with the authorities in the rest of the world where the POTUS has not made many friends lately. I remember EASA has made life difficult for the Robinson R66 because of lacking servo redundancy even when there where no accidents to prove the point. My best guess is that except the FAA no one will re-certify the Max before the final investigations of the two accidents are out and that could be a while. I think Boeing is in dire need of parking space and cash to pay the unsold production.
