If it's a Bus supremacy you're concerned about, they have no better friend than Max. Enjoy the media circus as Boeing's bank gets reauthorized in September. No subsidy is adequate to keep aircraft lines open for which there are insufficient sales forever.

1 week after the 737 MAX is back flying, no passengers will remember.
Airlines who have them or plan to buy them won't have any problem either. Instead of saying, "Enjoy flying on board our new 737 MAX" they will say, "Enjoy flying on board our new 737" or "Enjoy flying on board our newest aircraft."
