The first company to receive the jets again is United Airlines, which was founded in the late 1920s by William Boeing himself, also the founder of the American manufacturer, who, at that time, decided not only to make airplanes, but also to explore the air market. with your airline.
The company under Boeing’s wing was short-lived, since the monopoly with the verticalization of the sector (when one company dominates all stages of production and service) did not please the US government, which prohibited manufacturers from having their own companies.
Since then, United has been a separate private company, but it remains a major Boeing customer. In 2012, the company ordered the 737 MAX 9 and in 2017 it opted to increase the order with more aircraft, now of the MAX 10 variant, reaching 185 units ordered from the MAX family.
The aircraft delivered today, registration number N27519, is number 15 that United receives, being a MAX 9, just like the previous ones. Boeing took off from Boeing Field Airport, where the manufacturer and airline were created, and took a short flight before returning to Seattle, but this time landing at Sea-Tac Airport, from where it will take flights shortly.
