The CNN article insinuates that a few simulator flights by invited pilots and single test flight by the FAA will get the Max back into the air. CNN does not mention that while these activities may be necessary, they are by no means sufficient. EASA has already declared they will test-fly the real thing on their own. No mention about changes in crew training requirements, no mention about trim problems and no mention about other certification issues. Sounds a bit like whistling in the dark from Boeing in advance of next week 3rd quarter financial results presentation which is probably producing stern looks from the rating guys at Moodys, Fitch et altera.
