Chances FAA grounds all 737 Max tomorrow morning? - Remember when they grounded the 787s? LOT Polish had then their inaugural 787 flight to the USA (ORD) and couldn't fly back and had the aircraft sitting at ORD for a month+

I’m assuming this is not the 737-900? Anyone know what United refers to them as?

As much as I need to when my pants fell off the clothesline, and luckily I wasn't wearing them.

United ordered a modified version of the 737MAX, the 9, the two that crashed and the ones AA and SW ordered were 737MAX8, They claim that their version is safe and their pilots were trained how to operate the 9’s AoA system, which is faulty on the 8’s

“United Airlines doesn't operate the Max 8 but it does have 14 Max 9s. It is telling passengers on Twitter that it will try to find alternative travel arrangements for those who prefer not to fly it”
