The United States Federal Aviation Administration shared in its latest update that it decided to halt the expansion of the Boeing Company's Boeing 737 Max production.

"We will not agree to any request from Boeing for an expansion in production or approve additional production lines for the 737 MAX until we are satisfied that the quality control issues uncovered during this process are resolved," FAA Administrator Mike Whitaker commented in a statement.

However, the agency did clear the company's Max 9 to go back to service.
