Boeing 737MAX - statustråd

[Someone]

Planlagt oppramping av produksjonen hvis alt går som planlagt. Dessuten spekuleres de i at CFM uansett sliter med å produsere nok motorer, slik at en nedgang i produksjonen uansett ikke er så dumt

Rate 42/mo, April and May;
Rate 47, June;
Rate 51.5, July and August; and
Rate 57, September.

FAA Statement on Boeing 737 MAX

The FAA convened a meeting today, April 12, at the agency’s Washington, D.C. headquarters with safety representatives of the three U.S.-based commercial airlines that have the Boeing 737 MAX in their fleets, as well as the pilot unions for those airlines.
The approximately 3-hour meeting opened with remarks from Acting Administrator Dan Elwell and covered three major agenda items: a review of the publicly available preliminary findings of the investigations into the Lion Air and Ethiopian Airlines accidents; an overview of the anticipated software enhancements to the MCAS system; and, an overview of pilot training. Each presentation corresponding to the agenda, delivered by FAA subject matter experts, allowed for an open exchange between all participants.
In his opening remarks, Elwell characterized the meeting as a listening session for the FAA to hear from the participants for a fuller understanding of the safety issues presented by the Boeing 737 MAX. Elwell said that he wanted to know what operators and pilots of the 737 MAX think as the agency evaluates what needs to be done before the FAA makes a decision to return the aircraft to service. Elwell emphasized that the same level of transparency, dialog, and all available tools that have created aviation’s incomparable safety record also will apply to the FAA’s ongoing review of the aircraft’s return to service. Elwell said that the participant’s operational perspective is critical input as the agency welcomes scrutiny on how it can do better. As the meeting concluded, Elwell committed to the participants that the agency values transparency on its work toward the FAA’s decisions related to the aircraft.

Blir spennende å se hvordan Jet Airways konkursen utarter seg og hvordan den slår ut på MAX sim ordrebok. Jet hadde jo over 200 fly i bestilling, men med en god mix av egne ordre, leasing og en finurlig ordning med Boeing (Capital) hvor sistnevnte stod som bestiller

Blir fort fanget opp hvis de tvinges til å bremse produksjonen mer ...

Boeing skal ha fullført testingen av den nye MCAS softwaren, men foreløpig er det uvisst når sertifisering vil foreligge

Boeing has completed the final test fight for the updated software of the Boeing 737 Max, paving the way for a certification effort.

Og siste fra FAA

4/16/2019 4:15pm Update
The FAA today posted a Draft Report from the Boeing 737 MAX Flight Standardization Board. The FSB reviewed only the training aspects related to software enhancements to the aircraft. The report is open to public comment for 14 days. After that, the FAA will review those comments before making a final assessment. Boeing Co. is still expected in the coming weeks to submit the final software package for certification.

Interessant artikkel om uenighetene mellom regulerende myndigheter - og operatører.

Canada’s transport minister has signaled that his government could require additional simulator training for pilots of the 737 MAX. That possibility threatens to widen the gap between plans being developed by U.S. authorities to put the planes into service and those of other countries, according to industry officials and others participating in or tracking the process.

“Simulators are the very best way from a training point of view to go over exactly what could happen in a real way and to react properly to it,” Canadian Transport Minister Marc Garneau said Wednesday. “It’s not going to be a question of pulling out an iPad and spending an hour on it.”

Det er vel mer enn «could require» første Max Simulator er på plass (Air Canada) og WestJet sin er på vei.

Preventivt .. i påvente av kravet men også for å møte egne, strengere krav. Se også hva det står om Ryanair som også finner en time i solstolen med en ipad å være i minste laget ..

Dennis Muilenburg har tatt på seg den gule jakka og forteller om programvare.

http://www.boeing.com/commercial/737...e-updates.page

- Flight control system will now compare inputs from both AOA sensors. If the sensors disagree by 5.5 degrees or more with the flaps retracted, MCAS will not activate. An indicator on the flight deck display will alert the pilots.

- If MCAS is activated in non-normal conditions, it will only provide one input for each elevated AOA event. There are no known or envisioned failure conditions where MCAS will provide multiple inputs.

- MCAS can never command more stabilizer input than can be counteracted by the flight crew pulling back on the column. The pilots will continue to always have the ability to override MCAS and manually control the airplane.

These updates reduce the crew’s workload in non-normal flight situations and prevent erroneous data from causing MCAS activation.

Mens Spirit som lager flykroppen, vil fortsette å produsere for fullt selv om Boeing drar ned sin produksjon. Og Boeing må betale Spirit for det de lager

https://www.flightglobal.com/news/ar...lus-73-457611/

Spirit AeroSystems has clarified that Boeing will pay for each 737 fuselage that Spirit produces in excess of Boeing’s production rate, helping maintain Spirit’s financial position as Boeing slashes output.

Siste fra FAA. Ser ut til å bli en sommer uten MAX...

4/19/2019 3:00pm Update
Experts from nine civil aviation authorities have confirmed they will participate in the Boeing 737 MAX Joint Authorities Technical Review (JATR) that the FAA established earlier this month. The JATR team will conduct a comprehensive review of the certification of the aircraft’s automated flight control system.
The JATR is chaired by former NTSB Chairman Chris Hart and comprised of a team of experts from the FAA, NASA and international aviation authorities. The team will evaluate aspects of the 737 MAX automated flight control system, including its design and pilots’ interaction with the system, to determine its compliance with all applicable regulations and to identify future enhancements that might be needed.
The team is scheduled to first meet on April 29 and its work is expected to take 90 days.

Confirmed participants include:
Australia
Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA)
Brazil
Agencia Nacional de Aviação Civil (ANAC)
Canada
Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA)
China
Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC)
European Union
European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA)
Japan

Boeing har i første kvartal tatt en ekstraregning på $1 milliard i første kvartal på grunn av MAX problemene. Og jo lenger flyet står jo høyere blir regningen


Samtidig vet ikke Boeing hva totalregningen her blir

https://e24.no/boers-og-finans/boein...oeing/24608873

Boeing tar en foreløpig ekstraregning på en milliard dollar i regnskapet på grunn av problemene med 737 Max-flyet. Den store usikkerheten om hvor lenge flyene må stå på bakken gjør at selskapet ikke lenger tør å spå resultatene for 2019.

Min flight DY1804 11.5 er nå satt opp med MAX, så min 1F ble 29F. Ikke greit å forstå seg på...

Virgin Australia har nettopp offentliggjort at de utsetter levering av sine MAX ordre. Første levering er nå utsatt fra november 2019 til juli 2021.

15 MAX8 ordrer er også endret til MAX10, i tillegg til de 10 som ble endret i fjor slik at 25 av totalt 40 vil nå være MAX10.

Første MAX8 er ikke ventet før i februar 2025...

Nok en video fra Wendover productions, denne gangen rundt utviklingen 737 serien, helt fram til dagens max.

Jeg viste ikke at det fortsatt var fly by stålwire i max serien.

Da er Southwest's siste MAX på vei til Victorville, med ny motor etter at de fikk motorhavari ved forrige forsøk.
