The plane took its first test flight yesterday. This plane among others will be delivered to Southwest Airlines later this summer. Personally I think this is a beautiful plane 😍😍😍

Same. I might try to get on the first revenue flight but if I can’t then I will keep tracking it and go to the closest commercial airport to me (KISP - 30 minutes away) and watch it come in there when it does for the first time

I always find it interesting to see that the MAX split scimitar winglets different from the ones put on the NG’s. The max is always a beauty.

I like the NGs more, they look sleek. MAX are too square.

Look, I love the cockpit of it but one thing that I wish never existed are those winglets! I prefer the 900 ER winglets on Alaskan etc. I understand it is fuel efficient but personally I think they ruined the iconic ‘737’ but whatever I don’t mean to cry 😭

The iconic 737 never had winglets to begin with ;)
