The international debut of the new 737 Max 10 leads the Farnborough Airshow presentations from Boeing, which also is highlighting its sustainability initiatives, defense and space business, and services at the UK gathering.
Boeing calls the Max 10—largest of the 737 Max family—“one of the most fuel-efficient [jets] in class,” and it joins Boeing’s 777-9 in the airframer’s daily flying and static displays. In Farnborough, both of the aircraft run on a blend of sustainable aviation fuel, which Boeing sees as “a major lever” for reducing carbon emissions.
Boeing has received more than 3,300 net orders for 737 Max narrowbodies.
Boeing also unveiled at the airshow a modeling tool that provides actionable insights on strategies for attaining net zero emissions in the aviation industry by 2050. For Boeing, that includes electric propulsion technology and its joint venture with Wisk Aero on Cora, an all-electric, pilotless eVTOL aircraft; the autonomous MQ-25 aerial refueler; and its Airpower Teaming System, all of which the company is showcasing at the Farnborough Airshow.
In the defense, space, and security sector, Boeing's display includes a CH-47 Chinook and an AH-64 Apache helicopter; surveillance platforms including the P-8A Poseidon and KC-46A Pegasus; and digitally-advanced programs including the T-7A Red Hawk jet trainer.
Meanwhile, Boeing Global Services is highlighting its "customer-centric services," as well as parts, modifications, and sustainment and training solutions, while Boeing’s exhibit space (Chalet C201-206) includes an immersive theater to showcase its wide-ranging aerospace capabilities.
