This is good. Boeings problems can be slowed down if they stop producing that airplane. They need to simplify and regroup. United just gave them another reason to do so. Let’s hope other airlines follow.

- its_ethan 3y agoThe Max 9's that United has asked them to switch to is the one that was recently grounded for the door plug issue.. I'm not so sure this is the sign that you're assuming it is?
- MR4D 3y agoUnderstood. However, that issue appears to be a process/maintenance issue as opposed to flight certification situation like the 10 has. Finally, killing off the 10 will likely force Boeing to actually build a new plane instead of iterating on a half century old design. Personally I hate the 737. It needs to be put out to pasture and replaced with an aircraft design that represents modern ideas.

They are still making the Max10. And the problem that has caused certification issues for Max10 still needs to be fixed for Max9. Just not a big enough issue to ground existing planes.
