The only annoying thing is accidentally lookin for the flap indicator in the wrong place.
It's more annoying if your company puts audio panels in different places (MAX vs NG). Then you're always reaching to talk (R/T I/C switch) in the wrong spot... Maybe thats why so many of our pilots just reach for the yoke when I'm flying... Too bad it would seem to cost too much to add the glareshield PTT button to the NGs!
From someone who has touched all currently 121 operating NG and Max, the Max8 is hands down the best flying 737. Followed by the Max9. I suspect you guys will enjoy the Max10s more than the 800s or 900ERs... You'll probably only think about the differences when you wonder how much longer till the wheels hit... Or the latest software change that causes the Max to sometimes require 100 sec of motoring (yes, 1:40 on the timer) to spin up and cool down a hot engine before starting it
