They totally do.

Approved by the same regulators that approved the engines. Any new orders for the 737 Max? I don’t actually know but the market for brand new planes is pretty sophisticated…

Are you joking? Boeing has a massive order book for the 737 Max. They have had 1500 net orders in the last 3 years.

I love how people think they are aeronautical engineers here.

To that point, how many here don't step foot into a car? Your odds of death/major injury are literally thousands of times higher per mile in a car versus a plane.

I get your point as it is a widely expressed one, but there is a very good chance of walking away from a car crash.

Almost no one survives a plane crash. So there you have it.

I try it not to fly the 737 Max, and with good reason apparently.

au contraire my friend. When you book travel there is a pull down on each flight option that tells you what type of plane it is - "flight details".

Yep, and it never ever ever changes.

737-9 Max is interchangeable with 737-900, etc, etc. chances are you’ll never notice until you are already onboard.

Well that's just not true, at all. This is PP. Plenty of times I've seen my plane type change - but never for example from Airbus to Boeing or vice versa. not saying it doesn't happen I've just never seen it happen on the flights I've taken.

They need a new design instead of using the one from 1960s.

Yes.Made me laugh United frequently switches planes.

If you really want to tell, the easiest way to distinguish the 737 from the A320 is that the 737 has slightly oblong engines, unlike the A320, which has circular engines.

As for the Max, it has the split winglets, that's the easiest way to distinguish it (from the outside eye) from the previous 737 generations.

You could also check sites like Flightaware before your flight and it will tell you,along with the airline website.

But sometimes there is not much choice for certain routes and small airports.

It will either be inspected in time or they will switch your plane, is my thought. So no action needed.

They tell you what the craft is and you can pick a flight on a different craft though, doofus

Yes. It’s not like the airline gives a choice of craft when reserving tickets.

No, I’m not a pilot.

Only United and Alaska use the Max 9. Most US airlines do use the Max 8 though.
