It's not clear if older models suffer from the same defect.
- cco 3y agoAny of the newly engined Max models are involved, even the Max 8 and 9. The problem with the de-icing mechanism was only found _after_ the 8 and 9 were certified so they've been allowed to continue flying with the "pilot fix" in place (this is ludicrous btw). The Max 7 is being blocked currently because it hasn't been certified yet.
- ShadowBanThis01 3y agoThat's what I thought, thanks. As you note, the "solution" is absurd, and insulting and offensive. The older models should be pulled too. WTF.
