Boeing restarted 737 Max production just hours after saying it would lay off thousands of workers
The plane was grounded worldwide in March 2019, and production had been suspended since January 2020.
Work at the Boeing facility in Renton, Washington, where the 737 Max is built has been suspended since January. Boeing has continued manufacturing the plane throughout its yearlong grounding, but has been unable to deliver them to customers while the plane was not allowed to be flown. Since the initial suspension, Boeing has seen the commercial aerospace landscape shift dramatically. Air travel demand is down as much as 97% for commercial airlines. Airlines have grounded large portions of their fleets and are expected to cancel orders for new aircraft or defer delivery.The company did not immediately return Business Insider's request for comment on where newly completed planes will be stored.
