May 11 (UPI) -- Boeing stocks dropped after announcing it was temporarily suspending test flights of its 737 MAX narrow-body jetliners due to possible engine problems.
Boeing on Wednesday said production of the jets would continue despite the halt in flights and that it was maintaining its plan to begin the first deliveries for the 737 MAX later this month. Boeing designed the MAX fleet to replace the previous 737 model as a more fuel-efficient model.
