Some of the flying public might feel they are tricked into climbing aboard a disguised MAX.
Exactly. Which is my primary reason for the original post. Trickery is essentially what this is. Can’t stand behind the brand so stand the brand behind another name.
I’m fully aware of the designator / model number but airlines all over the place have daubed MAX on the sides of their aircraft, including Ryanair as evidenced by the photo. And now, the back pedal to an innocuous name.
