Do these calculations assume all miles flown by ANY max variant are the same?

- jessriedel 3y agoSort of. It averages over them. If you want to dig up some data and make a more detailed estimate, please do so.
- StreetChief 3y agoNope I was hoping to point out what is to me a failure of logic, that since previous versions of the plane flew safely, newly manufactured max 8 and 9s somehow have trillions of miles of safe flight. Should we combine all ford mustang car miles driven since the 80s to calculate the safety of the newest version?! Obviously the analogy doesn't hold completely, but the versions of the 737 are different. If I put a jet engine on a ford mustang, is it still a ford mustang? It's the same car, but I mounted a bigger engine!
- jessriedel 3y agoOh mean, should we look at the 2021 model year Ford Mustang to estimate the risk of 2024 model? What about different 2024 cars that were manufactured in winter vs summer? I'd say yes, but you're welcome to do what you want.
- StreetChief 3y agoi'm shocked you would say yes to that, but consider all the 737 miles the same
