<p>The <keyword id="1852115" type="PERSON" weightage="60" keywordseo="Boeing-737-MAX">Boeing 737 Max</keyword>, the latest generation of the storied plane-maker's 60-year-old workhorse, has been an unmitigated disaster. But after nearly two years on the ground, the <keyword id="777180" type="PERSON" weightage="60" keywordseo="737-MAX">737 Max</keyword> is back.</p><p>On Tuesday, American Airlines will operate the first U.S. commercial flight of the 737 Max, with a 737 Max loaded with passengers leaving Miami International Airport at 10:30 am ET, bound for New York City's LaGuardia Airport.</p><p>The global fleet of Max jets was grounded after the second of two fatal crashes, which killed 346 people. Now, as the 737 is cleared to fly again and airlines work to bring their Max jets from storage back into service, questions remain: Can <keyword id="6357957" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="60" keywordseo="boeing">Boeing</keyword> sell the plane again? Will passengers will be willing to fly on it?</p><p>Those answers are for another time. But for now, familiarize yourself with how we got here with the timeline below.</p><h2>The history of the 737 Max</h2><p>The 737 Max is the fourth generation of the Boeing 737, and quickly became infamous for its two fatal crashes. Investigators linked them to a faulty system called the Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System, or MCAS - designed to compensate for the Max having larger engines than previous 737 generations.</p><ul><li><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/boeing-737-max-timeline-history-full-details-2019-9" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The complete history of the Boeing 737 Max, the trouble plane that's been grounded since 2 crashes killed 346 people 5 months apart</a></li><li><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/boeing-737-history-photos-airlines-2019-9" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Boeing 737 timeline: From the early days to the grounding of the 737 Max after 2 fatal crashes</a></li></ul><h2>Investigations, hearings, and more problems</h2><p>Larger engines meant the plane's nose could tip upward, potentially leading to a stall. To neutralize the problem, MCAS could automatically point the nose down.</p><p>However, the system could be activated by a faulty reading from a single angle-of-attack sensor, without any redundancies or backups. In both fatal 737 Max crashes, the sensors are thought to have failed, sending erroneous data to the flight computer and, without a redundant check in place, triggering the automated system.</p><p>But that was just the beginning. </p><ul><li><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/boeing-737-max-report-faa-flaws-oversight-2020-9https://www.businessinsider.com/boeing-737-max-return-cleared-grounding-steps-faa-2020-9?r=737max-lp" target="_blank" rel="noopener">A blistering House report slams Boeing and the FAA over 'serious flaws and missteps' that led to two deadly 737 Max crashes</a> </li><li><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/boeing-737-max-prosecutors-investigation-prosecutors-lied-faa-2020-2https://www.businessinsider.com/boeing-737-max-return-cleared-grounding-steps-faa-2020-9?r=737max-lp" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The DOJ is reportedly probing whether Boeing's chief pilot misled regulators over the 737 Max</a> </li><li><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/boeing-737-max-foreign-object-debris-found-stored-planes-2020-2https://www.businessinsider.com/boeing-737-max-return-cleared-grounding-steps-faa-2020-9?r=737max-lp" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Boeing found debris from manufacturing in stored 737 Max jets, a problem that has plagued the company on a different plane</a> </li><li><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/boeing-737-max-employee-called-lion-air-idiots-training-request-2020-1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">A Boeing employee called Lion Air, the airline in the first 737 Max crash, 'idiots' for asking to have its pilots trained in flying the plane</a> </li><li><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/outrageous-messages-from-boeing-employees-2020-1https://www.businessinsider.com/boeing-737-max-return-cleared-grounding-steps-faa-2020-9?r=737max-lp" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The 16 most outrageous things Boeing employees said about the company, 737 Max program, and each other in released internal emails</a> </li><li><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/boeing-employees-wouldnt-let-families-fly-on-737-max-2020-1https://www.businessinsider.com/boeing-737-max-return-cleared-grounding-steps-faa-2020-9?r=737max-lp" target="_blank" rel="noopener">8 months before the first 737 Max crash, 2 Boeing employees talked about how they wouldn't let their families fly on the plane</a></li><li><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/boeing-737-max-investigation-finds-new-concerns-with-wiring-engines-2020-1https://www.businessinsider.com/boeing-737-max-return-cleared-grounding-steps-faa-2020-9?r=737max-lp" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Boeing 737 Max investigation after several plane crashes revealed additional concerns with wiring and engines</a> </li><li><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/boeing-737-max-ceo-dennis-muilenburg-out-amid-plane-crisis-2019-12https://www.businessinsider.com/boeing-737-max-return-cleared-grounding-steps-faa-2020-9?r=737max-lp" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Boeing's CEO Dennis Muilenburg has been fired as the company continues to battle fallout from its 737 Max crisis</a> </li></ul><h2><strong>Struggles for airlines as their planes remain unable to fly</strong></h2><p>The groundings were initially expected to last for just a few weeks.

The plane-maker has only booked 42 orders of the plane since the grounding began, and its backlog of 4,102 undelivered orders is quickly dwindling.
