vinnyt77 Hursty There’s just no way I’m getting on one of these anytime soon… Was looking at some travel plans for next year for wife’s big birthday, and one of the options had a MAX for part of the journey. Fuck that.
LT42 I fly back to Turkey on a 737-800, reliable plane but still, this thread has done wonders for my anxiety and I’ll now be up to the eyes on goofballs for the flight.
Hursty LT42 I personally think that is a decent plane with a good record thus far. However a MAX is a complete no go which RyanAir have purchased many of.
vinnyt77 LT42 Nothing wrong with the 737 Next Generation family as far as I’m concerned/aware. Flown many times, and wouldn’t avoid in future. The MAX family is a different question altogether…

LT42 vinnyt77 Yeah I know, I’ve flown them countless times but thats the problem with flight anxiety, just takes the smallest seed 😬
