From the news:
Reuters has reported that Boeing will “conduct flight testing on the anti-ice fix later this year.” Both sources say Boeing now expects Type Certification of the 737 MAX 7 and MAX 10 in 2025, with The Air Current suggesting “deep into 2025 at the earliest.”
So yeah, late 2025 is very ambitious. Anybody who has been around the block with our good friends at Boeing knows that their timeline will slip, the Feds will do fed stuff, and maybe we will see it at some point.

You do know why certification is being held up, right?

FAA “Oh no, a door plug fell out of a MAX 9…better hold off on certifying the -7 that doesn’t have that door”

The in house rumor is they are using the same engine nacelle but with different materials to satisfy the engineering requirement. It still has to be implemented and tested and then certified. I think a year is pushing it, especially with Boeing being put back into the crawl phase of crawl, walk, run after falling on their faces repeatedly.
