    It’d be an understatement to say that the 737 Max is a polarizing aircraft. On one hand, its suite of technological advancements allow for a substantial decrease in fuel consumption - a boon for both the environment and for airlines. But at the same time, the aircraft’s future has been rightfully called into question after two deadly accidents uncovered serious design flaws.
    In the wake of those crashes, Boeing went to great lengths to address safety concerns and assuage the fears of the flying public. With the Max nearly cleared to fly once more, it appears those efforts are about to pay off. But despite this imminent victory, Boeing still faces quite the uphill battle. What was once the company’s fastest selling jet has become complete dead weight, sporting a negative order backlog for 2020. The program desperately needs a vote of confidence from a major airline. And luckily for Boeing, it looks like one long-time customer is ready to step forward and buy some Max’s. Let me explain...

    In my view the decision won’t be anything to do with commonality, reduced purchase price or historic relationships.

    They have two choices:
    1. Change the name. "Rebrand" the product.
    2. Sell it to cargo airlines. The only problem with this is that the fuselage can only carry 12 standard cargo containers and the airplane has two-wheel main landing gear. This latter means that on warm days, there will be a problem with high brake temperatures after landing. The 757 had the same basic fuselage barrel but it had way more power, could carry 14 containers, and had FOUR wheel main trucks. It was a far better airplane and Boeing should have kept it in production and ditched the silly 737.

      Let's be real here my friend I am still not entirely convinced the max has/had any real problems in both cases when the max crashed it was in shitholes (Ethiopia and Indonesia) the max flew thousands of passengers safely in the US, Canada, and Europe. I think the accidents have more to do with maintenance/training practices in those countries than any real design flaw

    • @Ostpuff
      @Ostpuff 3 года назад +9

      ​@dothemathright 1111 Now this is truly a bad take. Have you even looked at the investigations? No pilots were trained on the MCAS because Boeing didn't inform airlines about it. Not to mention the faulty sensors controlling the behavior of the aircraft with NO redundancy. The crew should never have been put in that situation in the first place.
      Two crashes in less than two years after entering service is no matter how you put it a terrible track record. The much more technically advanced and innovative 787, not to mention the gigantic A380 have still not recorded any fatalitites, 9 and 13 years after entering service respectively.

    • @Ostpuff
      @Ostpuff 3 года назад +6

      @dothemathright 1111 Perhaps I'm misinformed then. But doesn't matter, some training should be mandatory for the new features since they are vital to the plane's ability to maintain flight, which Boeing should have informed them of. The FAA are also to blame here.
      STILL that doesn't even address the fact that the faulty sensor that caused the pitching should have had some redundancy. Had the plane been well-designed, the situation wouldn't occur to begin with. To think it is under any circumstances a normal occurance that a plane starts uncontrollably pitching downwards for no reason is just absurd.
      You can say what you will that the pilots should have known how to turn off MCAS, but a faulty sensor of such importance shouldn't fail during flight on a regular basis. Twice in two years is much too often, especially for a plane expected to be produced in about 10 times the current quantity.

    I think a factor that could ultimately move Alaska into Airbus (hypothetically) is Airbus' ability to offer 2 products that Boeing cannot. Airbus could fill the whole fleet needs with the A320 line, but also offer the A220 line for Alaska's regional brand Horizon. The issue with Horizon is their Q400's will need to be replaced eventually due to age. Yes, Horizon has the E175 but the A220 could fill those long and thinner routes that a small 737-700 could not. I would like to see a video as to why Alaska could move into Airbus' arms.

  • @cogent4645
    @cogent4645 3 года назад +1

    The fundamental problem lies in adopting the turbojet era undercarriage design and forcing the placement of the much larger LEAP engine forward and upwards for ground clearance. The higher pitching moment ensued obviate the need for a flight control software pitch down compensation, which is the crux of the matter. I still don't see the fundamental issue of low undercarriage being resolved, while software compensation has become a critical function for the aircraft.

    Historical statistics prove that in a "certain" country, people forget pretty much anything that happened more than 2 years ago. It doesn't matter how big the scandal was, it doesn't really matter. For that reason, I see that the 737max will have quite a bit of problems around the world - except in one country...

    That's a tough one... Normally I would go with Boeing. However, with the bad press that the MAX has, the risk of what would happen if there is another major incident with the MAX anywhere in the world (even is Boeing was not at fault), and the almost certainty that the next A320 will still be an A320 but the next 737 will be a clean sheet design (meaning that they will need to go to a new anyway, be in in this sprint or the next one, with all the training, maintenance, etc associated costs), makes it a tough decision.

    Even as someone with a significant preference for the A320 series over the 737, if I were to be wearing my bean-counter hat I would find it difficult to recommend anything other than commonality.
    However, I am not a bean-counter, and I would be concerned about the risks of how even a short grounding could affect my operations if my fleet were all the same type, or even with the same engines (I have personal experience as a passenger on the day my scheduled A220 was grounded - fortunately I was one of the first who realised there was an issue, and Swiss re-booked me onto a Lufthansa flight which was just about to board - unlike most of my fellow passengers, I actually arrived at my destination early!)
    I would definately be looking at a clause in the purchase contract which passed responsibility for any design defect to Boeing, along with compensation for any losses or additional expenses.

  • @christianschraa4995
    @christianschraa4995 3 года назад

    In Case of Alaska, I would definetly hold on to the NEOs a bit longer. The upcoming A321XLR promises some great benefits for airlines and airports with less demand. When Alaska joins Oneworld, the XLR would be great to fly to the Eastcost-Hubs of American (PHL, CLT, JFK) to Anchorage or other popular niche destinations in Alaska, making Travel easier for those coming from Europe. Additionally, the Aircraft could also be sufficient to fly from Anchorage to eastern Asia, opening up potential Markets there. Thus operating a mix of regular A321neo‘s and A321XLR would greatly reduce maintenance, training and operating costs, even if the rest of Alaska Airlines is all Boeing

    To be honest, yes Alaska will purchase more 737max but also they love the A321neo which have a great payload then the 737max and is perfect for the transcon routes. I believe in my opinion Alaska Airlines will announce they will buy 737max but also a small hand full of A321neo as well. For an example DCA (Reagan) Alaska deployed this airport as a 321 only cause of the short runaway the 321neo can takeoff with a fully loaded passengers and cargo then the 737-8. Also passengers enjoy the comfort on the A321neo for the transcon. I believe we will see a mix fleet but definitely a small A321neo fleet in Alaska future.

      "For comparison, Airbus’ A320neo has computers of "similar vintage" - but it has seven of them." I would also point out that Airbus has had numerous instances of automation/sensors going crazy in their full range of aircraft (320/330/380 etc) . They have been luck enough to have the right people in the cockpit during most of these failures, thank God. I offer no excuses for Boeing but I also realize that focusing on Boeing doesn't make the rest of aviation immune.

    It depends on final calculations. Business is business and every company takes into account the purchase cost, operational costs (crew training, maintenance, fuel efficiency and etc.). In the end, airlines will present their final thoughts to both sides, including Airbus and Boeing, on how to secure a deal. But as you said, Boeing is more desperate to revive their B737, so I guess they will meet airline's proposition. And don't forget folks, there is always know European low cost airline who can take B737 half price anytime :)

However, if they'd rather save money in the long run, the NEO with its better fuel efficiency is the clear choice.

    I'm a long time Virgin America and now Alaska Airlines frequent flyer. I was disappointed when Alaska removed Virgin’s in-flight A-320 seating amenities and service. However, Alaska's routes and frequencies along the west coast made up for this loss. Since the pandemic, I've been flying on Alaska's (Skywest) E-175 between SFO/PDX/SNA/LAX. I like the E-175 smaller capacity, seating configuration, and crews. Given the 737-MAX poor safety reputation, I may need to consider another aircraft type or airline for my future bookings

    The way to see the subject is to understand what a duopoly means, there is a balance in the market as it stands in most cases both Airbus and Boeing are milking past end designs with only engine overhauls that do not affect them but the engine manufacturers if Airbus upgraded their production facilities and actually pushed Boeing over the cliff it would force Boeing to scrap the 737 and develop something new and extremely improved over both the 737 and the 320 and 321 and thus force Airbus to spend in RND and develop something better them self’s and thus shooting and hamstringing the 320 and 321 production. As it stand Airbus gained some market share and 320 and 321 will continue to be produced for a long long time
