I wonder what the Gantt charts would look like for redesigning the 737 MAX from scratch with new type certificate.
First revenue flight if everything goes smoothly: 2065? There’s like a 20% chance Everett will be scoured to bedrock by a tsunami by then. So I can understand the reluctance to do the right thing.
