BRUSSELS, Oct ​20 (Reuters) - ​Ryanair Chief Executive Michael O'Leary said on ‌Tuesday he is optimistic that US certification ⁠of the Boeing 737 MAX ‌10 will be completed ‌this month, allowing Europe's largest airline to receive 16 ​of the planes in early 2027.

The US Federal Aviation ⁠Administration said last month it was holding ​off certifying Boeing's long-delayed 737 MAX 10 until a newly ​disclosed software issue ‌was resolved, the latest setback to the planemaker's efforts ⁠to bring the largest version of its best-selling jet to ⁠market.

"Boeing are hoping to have the ​MAX 10, the new aircraft, certified before the end of October. We're ‌now in the last 10 days of October. We're ‌pretty optimistic that that ⁠date will ‌be hit," O'Leary ​told Reuters.
