@@ktjmitchell7722 because they have had lots of time to build them. It’s all 1960s technology, just look at how old the doors are with manual girt bars. A self respecting airline would buy the a220 or a320.
Beautiful plane, amazing landscape and terrain, awesome pilots and the equipment as well, and amazing landing; I love it all. The equipment is beautiful and even though the 737Max as a bad name due to the issues and the 2 crashes, I hope they get fixed and re-certified with the FAA so they can fly again. I know I would fly on them. I love the camera from inside the airport plane spotting the same jet from the landing to the gate. Awesome video, I love it.
Mr Paul Grimm does it make a difference what world? If you owned a car that had a tendency to veer left suddenly without warning but you were able to control it whilst other people crashed would you just accept you’re a good driver and leave it. No, you’d take it back and demand it gets fixed before you crash too
good to see this some interesting camera angles! hope Boeing has the Mcas situation sorted out and the aircraft can fly again.this has been a huge wake up call for the entire industry,you cannot put money ahead of safety!
JP......another fantastic video! Very insightful..... Super filming! Many thanks again....wish you a nice weekend/week :-) Stay safe!! Greetings Betsy.
There is no 787 Max. What are you talking about? It’s called the 737 MAX and I know full well it is grounded. I’m anticipating someone else will comment it because they don’t read the news or think this was filmed a few days ago
They did indeed have a few before they were grounded. Its a good match for them but time will tell what happens to the MAX and the airlines that had them in service or on order. Hopefully it all works out for everyone. Right now I guess no one is desperate for planes unfortunately!
To the IcelandAir pilots, given what we now know of the 737Max MCAS, can you give us an assessment of how you feel you would of fared in the same sensor failure situation, given what you knew about the systems at the time of this video? Thanks
mSawczuk D I’m a pilot and every incident that’s happened at my flight school or ga in general we draw a mental report at what happened and how to prevent, and where our skill, ego and knowledge stands in learning and properly solving a future problem that happens.
The video is very likely rather old. The 737Max can't fly for over a year now and Air Berlin still operated some flights until mid 2017. So I guess this video is from that time frame where both the 737Max and Air Berlin were still flying.
If you think about everything you were told growing up, and how much of it you still believe, the 737 max is likely the best passenger jet ever produced. Never assume you’ve been told the truth. Most people don’t know anything that’s really a fact.
One solution possibly for the MAX is for it retrospectively, to be considered a clean sheet design and certified as such. The aircraft has this CofG problem, but in my opinion, that is no worse than the tendency of T tail aircraft to go into a deep stall. Stick shakers and a ram to push the nose down were incorporated to prevent the deep stall situation in those types, but that still did not prevent the BEA Trident crash. A BAC 1-11 was also lost in stall testing. Pilots were aware of the vices of this design and were trained for it. MAX pilots were not told about MCAS and how to disable it. Just FLAP 1 would have saved 346 lives if the pilots had known.
C of g problem, what? You load the plane and distribute cargo and passengers to get the c of g just right as you do in any plane so I don't see the problem
Victor Grasscourt can’t select flaps above 250knots. And I said no in the fact the pilots didn’t know they system existed. The fact that they didn’t know it existed means they wouldn’t have known to select flaps anyway
Thomas Mortimore MCAS was a featured to make the MAX feel like other 737’s to handle, therefore no four axis simulator time required. However the system relied on the correct functioning of the Angle of Attack sensor. The MAX only came with one as standard, a second was an optional extra. Do you think that pilots should have been instructed about MCAS and why it was required?
An Avgeeks passion yeah, the max is a subtype and the MAX-7,8,9,10 are its variants. Generally, all the above variants are under the Boeing 737 MAX name. They are the re-engined version of the Boeing 737-700, 800, 900 NG (Next Generation) currently in service while the 737 MAX-10 is a completely new variant that did not exist in the NG family. The larger the variant number, the longer the aircraft size.
The 737MAX is the general name. Within the MAX you have the 8, 9, 10... just like the Airbus A320 is the general name for the series and you have the 321 etc...
LOL, pilot wore his cap. Mostly pilots don’t use the caps. Pilots use the visor from cockpit. I don’t know why Captain wore the cap. Golf game, possible!!!! 😅😂🤣
