Three of the many Boeing 737MAX aircraft in open storage at Boeing Field- this is an employee parking lot between East Marginal Way and the Duwamish Waterway. The aircraft furthest from me is GOL Airlines MAX-8, PR-XMH. The two United Airlines aircraft are both MAX-9s, N37516 and N27515. The MAX-8 is the equivalent of the 737-800 and the MAX-9 is similar to the 737-900ER. Compared to its equivalent 737NG, the MAX is about 3000 kg heavier on account of CFM LEAP-1B engines which are heavier than the NGβs CFM56s as well as the structural strengthening needed in the engine pylons, wings, fuselage and landing gear. On the upside, the structural strengthening to accommodate the new engines gives the MAX compared to its direct NG counterpart about 3175 kg more payload. #avgeek #aviation #aircraft #planeporn #KBFI #BFI #Seattle #BoeingField #Washington #airport #planespotting #instaplane #Boeing #737 #UnitedAirlines #N37516 #N27515 #GOL #PRXMH #instagramaviation #splendid_transport #instaaviation #aviationlovers #aviationphotography #flight #AvGeeksAero #AvgeekSchoolofKnowledge #AvGeekNation (at Boeing Field) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6rmUedhCFW/?igshid=110p2lcsloj4r
