What's the Future of 737Max?

With the recent developments it's learned that the Aircraft wouldn't enter the service until the Mid of Second Quarter of this Year.


The 737 Max Aircraft as described by many as"The Killer Aircraft" after the last year's tragedy in which nearly 346 people have lost their Lives. With the Aviation Regulators ordering the grounding of the aircraft's all Over the World the future of the aircraft's poses a Questions as to "Whether is coming to Service anytime soon?"

Well, the answer is still Uncertain as there is no recent developments in the aircraft and neither the authorities at the company had given any Information.

However we can only speculate the Future if we know some of the recent news about the aircraft. Some of the news aren't really good and puts a few Questions to Boeing.

Some of the recent developments are:-


1. Wiring Issue :- Just 3 days back some of the officials at the Federal Aviation Administration had reported that there is a wiring issue present in the aircraft which could lead to a fire. Boeing however hasn't confirmed the issue but is checking the systems thoroughly. Its reported that there are two sets of Wire that can actually ignite, and for Boeing it would take nearly 2 hours to fix the Wiring issue. So imagine 800 Aircrafts * 2 Hours = 1600 Hours.


2. Engine Developments :- In the past week the manufacturer of Engines CFM(Unit of Pratt& Whitney & Safran) has reported that its cutting the engine manufacturing capacity by nearly 40 percent. You may wonder what impact will it possibly have, so if earlier it was producing 100 Engines in 6 months, now it would produce only 60 Engines. That means the production of aircraft will also slow down as there isn't any other option for engine.


3. 1st Test Flight :- Still, after nearly 9 months into grounding there isn't any news of getting the flight tested. The FAA really seem doubted about the safety issue till now, and so are the other regulatory agencies.


With a lot of Eyes on Boeing, the future of 737 remains still uncertain. However it may not be long when we might see the aircraft fly in skies again.
