Greg - Serious question - How is that air frame on the Max8 faulty due to engine placement when the A320NEO has almost the same design?

Greg - Serious question - How is that air frame on the Max8 faulty due to engine placement when the A320NEO has almost the same design?
- salawat 8y agoBecause the A320neo can fit the engines under instead of in front of the wings, thereby negating the nacelles contribution to leading edge flow separation.
- GregTravis 8y agoExactly. Except it’s not flow separation that is the problem. It’s the lift that the nacelles generate combined with their mass and moment far ahead of the center of gravity
- salawat 8y agoYes, my mistake. Stated the outcome, not the action that gets you there.
