The Boeing 737 MAX aircraft has become a witness to the return of the aircraft, previously owned by a Chinese airline, back to the United States amid the escalating trade war between the two largest economies in the world.
This specific model of the aircraft was withdrawn from service following the ban on flights in March 2019 after two crashes that claimed the lives of more than three hundred people.
The flight took place from the Boeing factory in Seattle, Washington. In the context of this flight, the aircraft became the subject of trade disputes between Beijing and Washington. China previously imposed restrictions on Boeing MAX aircraft in response to trade sanctions from the United States. The details of this process are still ongoing.
Although Boeing has already begun deliveries of the MAX to various countries since it received certification, its largest market in China remains closed for this model.
