B737/B739/B39M - Boeing 737 NG/MAX family expansion

Topic title: ICAO code
B737, B739, B39M

:small_airplane: Aircraft Model (Name & Manufacturer)
737-700 (Boeing)
737-900 (Boeing)
737-9 (Boeing)

:compass: Purpose or Role in Game
Medium-haul pax airliner

:chart_increasing: Why should this aircraft be added?
Expanding the 737 would add a more realistic divide of the popular narrowbody aircraft’s flights. It only seems adequate to me to expand the 737 like the A320 family to allow for variety at 737-dominated airports

:airplane: Airlines that use it
United, Delta (-900), Southwest (-700), American, WestJet (-700), AeroMexico (MAX 9), Icelandair (MAX 9), KLM, Smartwings, Turkish Airlines, Air China (-700) and more

This is already known to be coming with all variants from 100 to max 10, hopefully but not confirmed to be this year

Any idea if the MAX 8-200 would also be implemented? Dimension’s are the same as the MAX 8 except for the extra exit doors behind the wing and higher pax capacity

I mean it’s already in the game

It’s not

Both Malta Air and BUZZ are Max 200’s. They’re just not labelled as such

Yeah, but having the label is what would make it ‘in game’ in my book

To each their own I guess

How would it be labeled? B738M2? Because if the labeling is not considered, it really is just already in game, it would just need a pax change.

Also, any thoughts on the proposed 737-8ERX? Wikipedia says its essentially a MAX 8/9 with more fuel and a higher MTOW, but carrying fewer passengers (150) to reach a projected range of 4000nmi

I go off this resource, not sure if it’s all too accurate but covers all the stops for me at least so far.
