First impressions of B737 MAX

FlyingOtter · February 21, 2024 at 4:23 PM

1)Cabin rework is awesome! Also interior fps is much better (apx.3-5) fps according to 737NG.(OpenGL -%100 - Ultra Sett.)

2)Bigger screens are makes values etc(engine values , map) easier.

2)Engine sounds really crispy , ı mean ı can feel the engine running and not disturbing until decent like the NG engine.

3) Livery's are nicely done , currently using 'Turkish Airlines'.

Switch diffrences from 737-NG;

*Autobreak switch position change.

*APU indicator none.

These are what ı see so far.Now flying Istanbul LTFA to Sofia LBSF. Last of all , Huge thanks to devs for their ''Hard Work''.

FlyingOtter · February 21, 2024 at 4:28 PM

The plane is very well made. The IPACS does an incredible job.

I searched here for some images of the 737 Max overhead and it does not have the APU EGT indicator. The autobrake knob is between the commander's and first officer's FMC.

Yes, I mentioned it in my article, and there is also an APU level indicator on the bottom panel. The flap indicator is also on the captain pilot's second screen. Additionally, all flight information is available on the pilot's left 1st small screen. time, flight number etc. Very well made !

Here a few screenshots from my first, LTBA(IST) to LBSF(SOF) ' 737MAX' flight guys.

Hello, can you please explain to me the two switches and what changes in the highlighted display. A tutorial please.

FlyingOtter · February 21, 2024 at 7:11 PM

My bad ı tought another 'Press Gauge' as a 'APU's EGT' indicator :(.

But ı found this , they explane 'Why doesn't the 737 MAX have an APU EGT gauge like all other 737s do ?'

''According to an FAA document from Nov 2020 on the 737-800 and 737-8 (aka Max) differences, which was "Approved by the Aircraft Evaluation Division", the removal of the APU EGT gauge does not impact the procedures or flight characteristics and is categorized as level-A ("Self-Instruction").
