Singapore Airlines | Boeing 737 MAX 8
20K, and my return to liveries.
First up, as you can probably see, I've reached 20K! Honestly, I didn't expect to get here so quickly; I've only been here for 7 months!
It's nice seeing that my fictional aircraft, like the T-03 and the D-01 have gotten so much reception. These designs are really my pride and joy, and I'm glad you guys like them.
I'll be making more liveries from now on, but my main focus will still be original, fictional airliners.
Also, thanks to my 225 followers for, well, following me. Some notable ones are LM0418, MrCOPTY, CR929thenewspplayer, NoblePlanes, Aarav, Brololxd and Neruneten21. Really a big thanks for not just following me, but also commenting on my posts. Every comment is well-received by me!
Now, just 5k more to the famed platinum...
And yes, I've dropped a new livery, this time from Budjet, the low-cost carrier of the RCP. You'll see it soon!
About SIA's 737 MAXes
For most of its history, Singapore Airlines has operated an all-widebody fleet, save for that one time it flew 737-200s.
However, in 2021, SIA absorbed its regional subsidiary, SilkAir, to consolidate operations. As a result, the 737-800s and 737 MAX 8s owned by SilkAir were also transferred to Singapore Airlines, making them the first narrowbodies in SIA for many decades.
The same aircraft, 9V-MBA, in SilkAir livery (above) and in SIA livery (below).
About 9V-MBP
This particular plane has significance to me, because I flew on it, on a school trip to Vietnam.
I didn't take any other photos lol
And yes, it means that I survived the MAX! (I know that MCAS has been overhauled and the MAX is safe now, but still.)
This is yet another occasion where I've made a livery reflecting a plane that I flew on, much like my Scoot 787-9.
For my trip to Jeju (yes, second trip in 2 months), I flew on a Scoot A321neo, so the livery will drop in a month or so.
One more thing...
So, this being a MAX, you may ask: does it have MCAS?
Well, ye-
Wait... it doesn't pitch down at this angle?
That means that I've broken (fixed) the MCAS! Yay!
(I actually didn't realise it until now; you can ignore the warning message in the craft instructions now.)
