Russia Accelerates MC-21 Certification with Additional Test Aircraft Aviation News – Russia’s federal air transport regulator is accelerating certification of the MC-21-310 by adding two more aircraft to its flight-test programme, aiming to meet an October deadline and advance domestic aviation independence. The regulator, Rosaviatsia, confirmed that the additional MC-21-310 jets will support an intensive certification effort following delays caused by the aircraft’s redesign with locally sourced systems. The programme reflects Russia’s broader import-substitution strategy, developed in response to reduced access to foreign aerospace components.

FAA to Review Boeing’s New Crew Alerting System for 737 MAX 10 Aviation News – The Federal Aviation Administration will evaluate Boeing’s upgraded flight crew alerting system for the 737 MAX 10, a key step as the aircraft moves toward certification amid heightened scrutiny of cockpit safety standards. The review centers on Boeing’s proposed enhancements, which include a synthetic angle-of-attack system and new controls to deactivate stall-warning and overspeed alerts. The updated system follows a 2022 decision by Congress to waive a deadline that would have required the MAX 10 to meet a newer cockpit-alerting standard, allowing Boeing more time to develop an alternative compliance pathway.
