		</div><p>Boeing’s latest version of the 737 Max jetliner made its first test flight on Friday, taking off near Seattle for an expected two-hour trip that the company hopes will signal improving fortunes for its most important plane.</p>
<p>The Max 10 is a slightly larger version of Max jets that are already flying. It is designed to seat up to 230 passengers and compete with the A321neo from European rival Airbus.</p>
<p>Chicago-based Boeing expects to begin delivering Max 10s to airlines in 2023.</p>
<p>Max jets get better fuel mileage than previous versions of Boeing’s venerable 737. Airlines began using the plane in 2017, but Max 8 and Max 9 planes were grounded worldwide for nearly two years after crashes in October 2018 and March 2019 killed a total of 346 people.</p>
<p>US regulators cleared the way for Max jets to resume flying late last year after Boeing made changes, including overhauling flight-control software that played a role in the crashes.</p>
<p>This spring, about 100 new Max jets were idled for several weeks because of an unrelated problem with electrical grounding of cockpit instruments.</p>
<p>The grounding of Max jets and reduced demand for planes because of the pandemic pushed Boeing Co to an 8.4 billion dollars loss last year.</p>
