MAX 8 is like flying a Cadillac with the best suspensions in the world after driving a Pinto over a bumpy road. It fly’s so smooth and is quiet.

What we are not being told is why this only affects the Max and not the neo's. Or could affect both just we haven't heard of any documented incidents of this occuring on the bus.
But I love flying the Max. Boeing absolutely does need to finally design a 737 replacement, but Max is a good flying bird overall. Really my biggest gripe with it vs an NG is the removal of the APU EGT gauge. Second gripe being how long it takes for the LEAP's to start, but that isn't a Max exclusive issue.

All planes with the LEAP's have the LRD.

But NG vs Max, that does not bare relevancy in the comparison.
Not like Airbus gave the 320 an entire systems redesign to make it more A350 like when they did the neo.

Yeah, having to do pilot stuff, think, and know your systems is complete BS in today's world. It's not a moving video game, it's just an airplane that we get paid well to operate.😁

There it is. Mr Tough-Guy, A Manly-man’s pilot! Give me a break. Incredible hearing anyone trying to defend the POS guppy. It’s the worst ergonomically designed aircraft in existence today.
