阿拉斯加航空首席执行官本·米尼库奇周二表示，对于导致波音737 MAX 10认证进一步延期的最新软件故障，他“并不过分担心”。该机型的认证进度已经比原计划滞后数年。
Alaska Airlines CEO Ben Minicucci said Tuesday he is "not overly concerned" about a new software glitch that's further delaying the certification of Boeing's 737 Max 10 which is already years behind schedule.
阿拉斯加航空周二早些时候公布了大规模客舱改造方案，计划在整个机队中增加更多高端座位，其中MAX 10将配备可躺平套间，该机型计划于2028年底投入运营。米尼库奇告诉美国消费者新闻与商业频道的菲尔·勒博，如果最新的MAX 10延期持续数个月，首飞时间可能推迟；但他补充说，这家总部位于西雅图的航空公司正与美国联邦航空管理局和波音合作推进认证工作。
Alaska earlier Tuesday unveiled a massive cabin overhaul with more premium seats across its fleet, including lie-flat suites on the Max 10, which are slated to start flying in late 2028. Minicucci told CNBC's Phil LeBeau that the launch could be postponed if the latest Max 10 delay lasts several months, but he added that the Seattle-based airline is working with the FAA and Boeing on certification.
美国联邦航空管理局局长布赖恩·贝德福德周一对记者表示，该机构正在评估这些飞机存在的一个软件问题，对该机型的批准将会推迟，导致波音股价大幅下跌。
Federal Aviation Administration Administrator Bryan Bedford told reporters Monday that the agency is assessing a software issue on the planes and that its approval of the aircraft will be delayed, sending Boeing shares down sharply.
MAX 10的客户包括阿拉斯加航空、联合航空、达美航空和美国航空，是波音最畅销的MAX喷气机家族中最后一个仍在等待联邦批准的型号。波音首席执行官本月早些时候表示，他预计MAX 10“很快”就会获得批准。波音在周末表示，公司最近在向航空公司发布的软件更新程序中发现了这个问题，并可能向飞行员中断部分自动导航信息。当飞机进近失败、必须复飞并重新对准跑道着陆时，垂直导航系统可能出现这一问题。
The Max 10 — which counts Alaska, United Airlines Delta Air Lines American Airlines among its customers — is the last model of Boeing's best-selling Max family of jets that's waiting for federal approval. Boeing's CEO said earlier this month that he expected approval of the Max 10 "very soon." Boeing over the weekend said it recently flagged the problem, which could cut off some automated navigation information to pilots, in an updated software program to airlines. The issue could occur with the vertical navigation system after an aircraft misses an approach and has to go around and line up to land again.
MAX 10的客户之一、欧洲廉价航空公司瑞安航空首席执行官迈克尔·奥利里周二早些时候在波兰华沙举行的一场会议上对记者表示，他预计MAX 10的认证“只需几天，而不是几周或几个月”。路透社报道称。
Michael O'Leary, CEO of European budget carrier Ryanair, which is a Max 10 customer, told reporters in a conference in Warsaw, Poland, earlier Tuesday that he expected the Max 10 certification to come in "a matter of days, not weeks or months," Reuters reported.
