The Federal Aviation Administration will delay Boeing's 737 MAX 10 until it is satisfied it does not have a problem, Administrator Bryan Bedford told reporters, Air Data News recorded. "We will be delaying the 10 until we're satisfied that we don't have an issue here." [E2]

He has not closed the safety question that sits behind that hold. "We haven't concluded whether this is a safety-of-flight issue or not, but we will be delaying the 10 ... until we're satisfied that we don't have an issue here," Bedford said, according to CNBC. [E1]
