Aircraft / Boeing 737- MAX 8

Boeing 737 MAX 8 in livery of JetSelect Aviation, shown in side view.

One of four planned variations of the Boeing 737 MAX aircraft family, the Boeing 737 MAX 8 is a narrow-body, medium range twin-engine jet airliner manufactured by Boeing Commercial Airplanes, a division of The Boeing Company. Boeing Commercial Airplanes is headquartered in Renton, Washington USA, while the parent company’s head office is located in Arlington, Virginia USA.

The 737 MAX 8 is currently available only in a passenger configuration. Given the popularity of P2F (passenger to freighter) conversion programs for the 737 MAX 8’s predecessor type, the Boeing 737-800, it seems likely that someday a freighter conversion program for the 737 MAX 8 will be in the cards. However no such program has been formally launched to date.
