Antenna filters are currently in production, officials said.

The altimeters give data on a plane's height above the ground and are crucial for bad-weather landings, but airline concerns about wireless interference from a planned 5G rollout led to disruptions at some U.S. airports earlier this year.

The delay did not prevent dozens of countries from canceling flights to the United States, casting the U.S. regulatory system in an ugly light. A key question is how to determine which planes are most at risk of interference and should therefore get retrofitted first. The FAA has been holding daily meetings with AT&T and Verizon that it said have"enabled us to closely tailor the areas requiring mitigation while aviation stakeholders take the necessary steps to retrofit existing radio altimeters with antenna filters."
