Boeing Begins Assembly of First 737-Max

First Look of 737-Max Assembly


Boeing has started the final assembly of its first 737-max. The wings & the advanced technology winglets have been attached to the fuselage. This aircraft will be giving a competition to its rival Airbus A320 neo. According to Boeing this aircraft has got 1.8% additional fuel efficiency. The tails section is yet to arrive for assembly.

The MAX is being built on a dedicated production line at Boeing's Renton factory.

Future of Flight Aviation Center Experience

On 29th Aprils 2015, I had got the opportunity to visit Future of Flight Aviation Center & also experience the Boeing Everett Factory tour. It's the best experience an aviation lover can get.

First Look : I was awestruck seeing the complete field area, as soon as I got down from the cab.
There were around 20 dream liners ready for delivery. There was even pre delivery testing of 777ER and 787-9 was going on. The thing which I liked the most was that people are not allowed to take their vehicles into the factories other than most experienced person.
