No further details at this stage. The share price is lower.

Said to be an issue with some parts.

Here we go, a little more:

  • Boeing has paused deliveries of some 737 MAXs as it grapples with a new supplier quality problem involving noncompliant fittings
  • problem affects the MAX 7, MAX 8 and MAX 8200 airplanes as well as the P-8 Poseidon maritime surveillance aircraft based on the 737 NG
  • not a safety of flight issue and in-service planes can continue to operate
  • issue will likely affect a "significant" number of undelivered 737 MAX airplanes both in production and in storage, and could result in lowered 737 MAX deliveries
Reuters report on the fix that will allow MAX to return to flight after being halted in early April.

Is this the right plane?
