I'm actually wondering if the 737 MAX will make it back into service. Every single one of these planes will need to be flow back to one of their maintenance centers (like the one south of Seattle) and undergo retrofits.
Hopefully it will result in Bowing being required to make this a new plane and a lot of pilot re-certification. If it does return to the market, I wonder if they'll be forced to rebrand it. It's obviously not a 737.
- alexis_fr 8y agoBugs tend to appear in Poisson law of probability: 2 big bugs immediately, 2 others a few weeks later, but that means there are hundreds of them to discover over a period of 5 years (until the D-check). So, in all probability, we don’t even know the list of fatal flaws even yet!
