The Federal Aviation Administration announced Wednesday that it is imposing
unprecedented restrictions on Boeing’s jet manufacturing facilities.

It will cap any 737 MAX production rate increases until it’s clear Boeing can

it will require of air carriers that fly Boeing 737 MAX 9s before the grounded
jets can return to passenger service.
