Flights with FAA test pilots will be conducted between Monday and Wednesday.
Boeing has been working with the FAA to get the 737 Max back in the air following two crashes within less than 6 months that killed more than 300 people. Boeing has worked to fix software errors and improve pilot training in order to resume operating the 737 Max in the third quarter of this year.
