Buongiorno.
Il B737-10 ha effettuato il primo volo ieri, 18 Giugno. Questo volo è stato effettuato a più di 5 anni di distanza dal primo volo del MAX (Febbraio 2016).
Il MAX10 dovrebbe competere con l'A321neo ma la "distanza" è molta: 230 vs 244 posti come max seating, 6110 vs 7400 km come range; per non parlare dell'A321LR ( 7400 km con 206 pax) e dell'A321XLR ( 8700 km con fino a 244 pax).
Da dire che il MAX10 raggiunge i 6100 km di range con già un "auxiliary tank" mentre l'A321XLR, con un MTOW di 101 tonnellate e un "rear centre tank" capace di 12900 litri, può volare per 8700 km (con inoltre la possibilità di aggiungere un "forward centre tank" per ulteriore carburante). Geniale.
Boeing’s 737-10, the largest airplane in the 737 MAX family, today (June 18, 2021) completed a successful first flight. The airplane took off from Renton Field in Renton, Washington, at 10:07 a.m. and landed at 12:38 p.m. at Boeing Field in Seattle.
“The airplane performed beautifully,” said 737 Chief Pilot Capt. Jennifer Henderson. “The profile we flew allowed us to test the airplane’s systems, flight controls and handling qualities, all of which checked out exactly as we expected.”
Today’s flight was the start of a comprehensive test program for the 737-10. Boeing will work closely with regulators to certify the airplane prior to its scheduled entry into service in 2023.
The 737-10 can carry up to 230 passengers. It also incorporates environmental improvements, cutting carbon emissions by 14 percent and reducing noise by 50 percent compared to today’s Next-Generation 737s.
As a leading global aerospace company, Boeing develops, manufactures and services commercial airplanes, defense products and space systems for customers in more than 150 countries. As a top U.S. exporter, the company leverages the talents of a global supplier base to advance economic opportunity, sustainability and community impact. Boeing’s diverse team is committed to innovating for the future and living the company’s core values of safety, quality and integrity.
