Still large (pay attention to the belt loader on the right side of the picture)

A-321 at the gate next to it. The belt loader from the previous picture is now on the left side.

They look nice, have you been seeing the 737 MAX lately?

I have no idea how to tell the 737 Max apart from the 737-8. Somebody said the winglets are different, but those vary from airline to airline.

They have bigger engines with chevrons, and a round tail cone at the back. That's how I tell them apart.

I haven't seen any of those yet. Southwest is supposed to have a couple flying into here, but I haven't seen any yet. I'll have to pay closer attention. American hasn't put any in yet (though I have seen a couple 737-8's with the engine chevrons).

Taking a couple days off. I survived 2017, so in celebration, we are going to Disneyland.

The engines with the chevrons are the MAX aircraft. The chevrons only appear on the new engines, which are a larger diameter than the ones used on the Next Generation (NG) aircraft.

This larger engine means a slightly redesigned pylon to mount to. Because of this, I do not think the new MAX engines can be mounted on a NG aircraft.

Regarding the winglets: The ones on the Max do not have the smooth sweeping transition that the ones on the NG aircraft have.

In order to make it to the convention in Ohio this May, I need to hold a fundraiser (hopefully it works out this time). To anybody who donates at least $5.00, I'm going to offer a special model. I'm still developing it (It's on paper, I just need to see if it's buildable).

Here's a hint that'll probably give it away:

Sounds fun! I’m going to try to donate at least $5 too

*looks at the picture and HMMMMMMMS as he holds a 'knife' * Was the prototype painted bright red and had an actual name instead of a Letter name for the Production models?
