The Boeing 737 MAX 10<\/strong>, the largest member of the single-aisle aircraft family, took off Friday on its first test flight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In an unusual departure from the PR buzz surrounding first flights, the event was being kept deliberately low-key as Boeing tries to navigate overlapping crises caused by the 20-month grounding in the wake of two crashes and the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The plane departed at 10:07 a.m. from the Renton Municipal airport near Seattle under clear blue skies, presaging months of testing and safety certification work before it is expected to enter service in 2023, Reuters<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The flight showcased a revamped landing gear system that illustrates the industry’s battle to squeeze as much mileage as possible out of the current generation of single-aisle aircraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It raises the landing gear\u2019s height during take-off and landing, a design needed to compensate for the MAX 10\u2019s extra length and prevent the tail scraping the runway on take-off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boeing\u2019s 230-seat 737-10 is designed to close the gap between its 178-to-220-seat 737-9, and Airbus\u2019s 185-to-240-seat A321neo, which dominates the top end of the narrowbody jet market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the market opportunity for the 737 MAX 10 is constrained by the jet\u2019s range of 3,300 nautical miles (6,100 km), which falls short of the A321neo\u2019s 4,000 nm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boeing must also complete safety certification of the plane under a tougher regulatory climate following two fatal crashes of a smaller 737 MAX version grounded the model for nearly two years – with a safety ban still in place in China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the smaller MAX 8 is Boeing\u2019s fastest-selling jet, slow sales of the MAX 9 and 10 models have put Boeing at a disadvantage to the A321neo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even so, Boeing says it is confident in the MAX 10, and it is stepping up efforts to sell more of the jet, with key targets, including Ireland\u2019s Ryanair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
