Latest Boeing 737 Max News

They do run on jet fuel, no?

Where's that going to be coming from? How much is it going to cost by the time they are to go into service?

They are very fuel efficient which is why the airlines can't wait to get their hands on them. I don't really understand your question the fuel comes from the same place as for every other plane.

Tch, tch. Maybe a few rivets missing.
 
Is that before or after the subtracted orders?

After you subtract the hundreds of cancellations due to Covid, there are 4,843 orders for Boeing 373 Max. So far 706 of those orders have been delivered on.

I know the alt right posters on JPP want this to be absolutely terrible or absolutely perfect, but reality is rarely that.

Big Q: How they gonna fuel those things up?

Boeing 737 Max's are comparatively fuel efficient, but of course they need fuel. Fuel prices have gone up, but fuel still exists in the world. If anything, there is currently an oversupply, still, of jet fuel.

Airlines are buying the Boeing 737 Max, because its greater fuel efficiency makes owning an older non-efficient plane not cost effective. There is a point that it is just cheaper to buy a new plane. Even if their plane is late, cancelling their orders means that they would have to go to the back of the line if they tried to order the plane again.

Aircraft lessor Air Lease said it was buying 32 more Boeing 737 MAX jets, bringing the total number of orders since the plane returned to commercial service to near 1,000—the latest evidence that the commercial aviation industry continues to support the aircraft.

Boeing Gets Good News: It Flipped an Airbus Customer

British Airways parent International Consolidated Airlines gave Boeing investors some good news Thursday.

IAG (ticker: IAG.London) ordered 50 Boeing (BA) 737 MAX jets, with options for a further 100 aircraft. IAG said the jets come at substantial discount from the list price, but discounts from list are standard operating practice in the commercial aerospace industry.

Boeing MAX not ready to fly in China any time soon, airline says

China Eastern Airlines (NYSE:CEA) dampens hopes for Boeing's (NYSE:BA) 737 MAX to return to flight in Chinese skies any time soon, as the carrier on Friday outlined several steps needed before operating the plane again, including modifications to the aircraft and further pilot training.

China Eastern's (CEA) vice chairman indicated to investors at a virtual briefing that the airline has not yet started work on returning the Boeing (BA) jets to commercial service, according to Bloomberg.

"Obtaining airworthiness approval is one of the most basic tasks, and afterwards the company will also need to complete the aircraft modification, parking aircraft recovery, pilot training," Li Yangmin reportedly said.

Commercial flight travel needs to be nationalized in that the private sector has fucked it up almost beyond recognition relative to what it once was.

But even that wouldn't work. The government is responsible for the despicable "TSA."

Bring on modern, high-speed rail like the civilized world already has.
We've gotten to the point where flying, once routine and easy, is only endurable for those who are blessed to own their own jets.

Because the Federal government works so efficiently. <sarcasm>

Anyone that thinks the Federal government should run the air travel industry is an idiot.<not sarcasm>

Idiots are running the industry right now.

My first time off the ground was in 1957.
Flying commercial was infinitely less annoying then than it is now.
That was 65 years ago. Some progress by the private sector.
 
Boeing 737 Max disaster casts long shadow as planemaker tries to rebuild fortunes
POst-crash.webp

Relatives mourn at the site where an Ethiopian Airlines Boeing 737 Max crashed in March 2019, killing all 157 on board.

A next-generation replacement of the Max could cost more than $25bn. On top of paying down the $45bn net debt it has built up during the crises and giving itself a cash buffer, Boeing might be in need of $75bn, Cunningham said. Boeing had done everything possible to avoid raising equity investment, which would hurt existing shareholders, but the analyst argued that new leaders with a long-term vision could pull it off, and set the company on course for the next generation of air travel.

“You either fully commit or you eventually go out of business,” Cunningham said. “Eventually can happen very quickly.”

Good luck, maggot.
 
Amazon Prime Video’s Flight/Risk is 2022’s second documentary takedown of once-great, now-disgraced airline manufacturer Boeing, whose negligence and greed resulted in two plane crashes killing a total of 346 people. The film is Amazon’s answer to Netflix’s Downfall: The Case Against Boeing, both of them using victims’ families, journalists and experts to tell a story of corporate greed and corruption – a story that’s awful and enraging no matter who’s telling it.
