The FAA approved the Boeing 767-200 under Type Certificate A1NM on 30 July 1982, ten months after first flight and three weeks before the first delivery to United Airlines.

The FAA approved the stretched Boeing 767-300 on 22 September 1986, adding about 21 feet of fuselage and roughly 45 two-class seats to the 767-200. Its extended-range 767-300ER version became the best-selling 767.

On 16 January 2013 the FAA ordered U.S.-registered 787s to stop flying after battery failures on a Japan Airlines jet in Boston and an ANA jet in Japan. It was the first time the FAA had grounded an airliner type since 1979.

Three months after the grounding, the FAA on 19 April 2013 approved Boeing's redesigned 787 battery system, including a new steel enclosure, clearing the fleet to return to service once retrofitted. Ethiopian Airlines flew the first 787 passenger service on 27 April.

The FAA issued an Emergency Order of Prohibition on March 13, 2019 grounding the 737 MAX 8 and 9 three days after Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 crashed, joining regulators worldwide in a 20-month grounding.

FAA Administrator Steve Dickson signed an order on November 18, 2020 rescinding the 737 MAX grounding and published an airworthiness directive requiring the design changes before the 737-8 and 737-9 could carry passengers again.
