Why is the MAX8 still flying?
When I search for B38M as the type, I note that SWA and AA are still flying the MAX8 over US airspace. These are grounded of course? Is this just a reporting error or some other technical misreporting? For instance, this is from Sunday 3/17/19. (flightaware.com) Ещё...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
I just saw a Boeing 737 max 8 B38M flying from Victorville Ca. To SKF Texas on flighaware. Why do you think that is?
I have a quick question. Yesterday I saw SEVERAL 737-800s on my Flightaware feed for SFO. All UNITED FLIGHTS. Since the Feds supposedly GROUNDED the MAX planes, are the -800s I saw DIFFERENT from the MAX planes? Just wondering!
Yes, the -600, -700, -800, and -900 are all Next Generation aircraft. The MAX-7, MAX-8, and MAX-9 are the updated variants of the respective NG variants, from my understanding. Many of the -700 and -800 have a split-style winglet similar, but not identical to the MAX, which uses an all-new split winglet. Biggest difference between the NG and MAX at a glance is the APU come at the tail. On the NG, the tail of the fuselage blends into fhe profile of the rudder as it always has on the 737. On the MAX, it’s an actual tailcone that extends aft of the rudder. L
MAX is the machine that uses the new MCAS system, developed due to the increased thrust of the LEAP1b engines. NG is the previous generation aircraft, no MCAS, equipped with the CFM-56 engines.

Hey good morning Timothy. Thank you very much for explaining the difference in the Boeing classes of aircraft. I appreciate that.
