06:50 AM EDT, 06/06/2024 (MT Newswires) -- Boeing's ( BA ) chief executive officer, Dave Calhoun, will testify before a US Senate panel on June 18, Senator Richard Blumenthal, who chairs the permanent subcommittee on investigations, and senator Ron Johnson said in a statement late Wednesday.

Blumenthal said Calhoun's testimony is "a necessary step in meaningfully addressing Boeing's ( BA ) failures, regaining public trust, and restoring the company's central role in the American economy and national defense."

The Federal Aviation Administration halted Boeing's ( BA ) increase in 737 MAX production in February following a door panel incident on a 737 MAX 9 flight in January.

Boeing ( BA ) did not immediately respond to MT Newswires' request for comment.
