BOEING’S BOARD of directors last Monday, August 30, approved the launch of the new engine variant of the B737 with commitments on hand for 496 of the airliners from five carriers. The reengined B737, named MAX, will be a competitor to the Airbus A320neo which has booked more than 1,000 orders since it was launched earlier this year. Boeing selected the CFM International LEAP-1B engines modified for the B737 which has a problem of the lower part of the engine being close to the ground.
