Typically airlines are using the MAX for longer distance flights instead of the NG. If people want to be realistic about it. 

United fly's the MAX from EWR to BOS all the time, sometimes its an NG though.  Today for example.  https://www.flightaware.com/live/flight/UAL1994/history/20240423/1735Z/KEWR/KBOS

Hopefully the passenger's doors stay bolted this time. NG always FTW.

-900 models of the NG have had those exact same door plugs for years.  As have other Boeings and even some Airbuses.

Anything can fall off if the manufacturer never bolts it on.

So you are a 737 Captain or a Boeing engineer.? I confused here.

I'm not sure you need to be an engineer to recognize that empty holes where fasteners should be just *might* be the reason a component separates?

But as a pilot, sure, I know when a component is used across multiple aircraft types that I fly, and even some I don't. That exact plug door, with the exact fastening system, is on thousands of NGs and other Boeings, as well as many Airbuses.  🤷‍♂️

This thread 😂.. back on topic. I’ve been away for a little bit, haven’t seen much on PMDG’s end anywhere. Still pretty quiet since the last few weeks from them?

I hope after this yet another 737 that someone starts work on another A320

PMDG have gone very quiet, lots of noise about release being imminent, and still we wait

I think RSR wasn’t feeling very good that’s why we haven’t heard anything. Hopefully he feels better soon (not because I want an update).

I also think that they are basically ready to release the 773 but like Black Square are awaiting SU15 to be in people's hands. Once this actually happens we can expect them to crank the hype machine up to high and we will hear a good deal from them.
