Boeing Co.’s grounded 737 Max jetliner completed a round of test flights with European air-safety regulators, taking another step toward a return to the skies.
The European Union Aviation Safety Agency will now evaluate data from the trips, it said in a statement Friday. The agency, based in Cologne, Germany, performed the flights from Vancouver, near Boeing’s Seattle-area operations, to get around coronavirus-related U.S. travel curbs.
