I’m glad GE paid A team of their people to create these videos! It’s really unfortunate to think of how many people are either uninformed or probably don’t care to think what the importance of these advancements have meant to their daily lives! Fantastic stuff! Thank you whomever gave the go ahead for these films!

The LEAP engine is heavier than the CFM56 series. Not a problem for the A320NEO because on that plane the engines are ahead of the wings, but on the new generation 737 Max they had to position for the first time the engines above and in front of the wing unlike the CFM56 which was slung under the wing. This changed the center of gravity of the 737 Max and so they had to create a system that would counteract the change in aerodynamics and flying behavior that this repositioning of the engine would create and it turns out as everyone knows there were two crashes because the software and the associated system only relied on one angle of attack sensor and there was insufficient training for pilots about how this new system could be managed and operated with. Boeing is now having to revisit and correct the software that is used to compensate for the repositioning of the engines and the effect on the flight dynamics and they will be using two angle-of-attack sensors which will properly compare each other's readings to determine whether a true stall condition it's happening.

@Logan Kluting Another aspect of the LEAP engine that I neglected to mention is the perfectly round intake nacelles which is standard on virtually all modern jet engines. The 737 non Max (and so does the Max) airframe sits low to the ground to facilitate engine maintenance. That was one of the selling points of all the 737 models. General Electric was able to change the shape of the engine nacelle on the CFM56 so that there would not be a problem with it being too close to the ground. I'm not sure it's generally known that the CFM56 series and it's semi ovoid shape nacelle for the 737 powers virtually all non Max 737 models that are in service today. Both General Electric and Boeing were confident that the repositioning of the leap engine could be compensated for in terms of how it might affect the aerodynamics. Boeing was in quite a hurry probably more of a hurry than other developmental cycles to get the Max into the air to compete with the A320neo and probably needed to do more work and testing on the sensors and software for the stall prevention system that were specific to the 737 Max. That work is being done now. The Max is a fine aircraft. Boeing has learned a great lesson through the experience. I believe they are a fine company and I hope they come out of the experience thriving.

Don't blame GE for the Max troubles. Boeing should just have developed a new plane from scratch.
