fwiw SWA is opening up apps next week(ish) and looking for people to start within 90 days.
MAX 10 will deliver to Alaska 9-12 months after certification due to HGS. If certified today we would not see these aircraft until late Q1 2027.
Best estimate on MAX 10 certification is Q3 2026. If there are no major setbacks. If this timeline holds there is no way we can get 25 MAX 10 delivered to the line in 2027.
Any setback to the timeline will mean even less MAX 10 deliveries. MAX 10 certification timeline will drive hiring for 2027. Anyone with a CJO should be paying close attention to the MAX 10 program.
