Could there be a 737-900?
 

So the other day i was searching on google for the 747-8 when Google's automatic calculator stated that 747-8=739 and "739" could represent an aircraft by boeing.. Maybe they saw that and made plans or maybe they have already started it and kept it top secret?

Post comments below , Thanks,

pretty sure there are quite a lot of 737-900's flying around already...

Been on my licence since early 2006

Have the ER on mine since 2007.

Boeing: Commercial Airplanes - 737 - The Boeing 737-900ER

:uhoh:

KLM have been flying 737-900s since 2001.

Stop rubbing it in, I bet he/she is embarrassed enough already ;)

While on the subject of 737 development , is it true that the FAA said that any 'New' NG would not be allowed and that the product would have to be completely renamed ie 797 ?

kotakota,

That is mischievous. The 737 type certificate is perfectly adequate and an expression of the great quality of engineering in 1964 when it was designed. Just because the -100 was a little underweight at 42 tonnes does not lessen the quality of the design, and a modest stretch for later models to anything up to 100 tonnes or 10,000km range would seem quite reasonable. The engineering parameters of the later and larger models are exactly the same as the original. They all have windows at the front and sides, wings on both sides, two engines, and the tail is at the back. Clearly there is no need for re-certification yet, and any suggestion otherwise is unfounded.

They were probably hacked off that they couldn't certify the Scarebus as a MercureNG :rolleyes:

Because that would of been a great help seeing as there were so many Mercures operating out there.

The Mercure was built by Dassault not Aerospatiale.

That would be like Boeing renaming a Douglas derivative.

Oh! they did!!!!! B717.:)

Did it have a new type certificate?

Thanks
