He also doesn't believe in the afterlife, cheerfully stating, "When you die, you're faced with eternal nothingness. It's gonna be great. Despite Max's cold disposition, he does have his moments.
He had tried to get David back together with Bonquisha in " Bonjour Bonquisha , and despite his initially misguided efforts, he did ultimately and genuinely try to correct his relationship with Gwen in " Time Crapsules ". Max throughout the series has definitely changed in his personality as well as the way he views life much to his distaste shown in " Keep the Change " He has made so much character development first mentioned in " Time Crapsules ".
In the later seasons you can tell max is overall happier and more accepting to his life at camp contrasting to his behaviour in the first two season. A big moment of realisation for him was during " Camp Corp. In " Parents' Day ", it is confirmed that Max's parents are in fact negligent. Max's file reveals that his parents failed to select a specific camp for him, suggesting that they didn't care what he was there for, only that he was gone.
Max's file only includes his first name and age, implying that his parents didn't even care enough to include his last name or any way to be contacted in case of an emergency. Max shows visible distress when seeing the other campers' parents care for them and even begins tearing up when his neglected status is revealed.
At the beginning of " Keep the Change ", Nikki and Neil point out that Max's attitude has lightened up a bit since the beginning of the summer, which even David and Gwen agree with. These points shock him, insisting he hasn't changed, that he's still a "cynical rebel" and a "one-man hell raiser", and that people can't and don't change.
To prove these points, he spends the rest of the episode, as well as " Cameron Campbell Can't Handle the Truth Serum ", trying to undermine Campbell's attempts to better himself. Although Campbell remains mercifully oblivious to these efforts, Max is extremely and repeatedly insistent that personal growth is impossible.
Max still remains highly adverse to change in " The Butterfinger Effect ", repeatedly rejecting the notion that change can often be positive when faced with his fellow campers' behavior suddenly and drastically skewing. In the end, he admits that he has made some change in his own right, and even recognizes it in the following episode " Time Crapsules ".
After sincerely feeling bad for and understanding the consequences of hurting Gwen's feelings, he realizes that this is due to his own change in personality. None of this would have been openly admitted to in previous seasons.
However, he does not make a genuine personal effort to make her feel better until his apology at the burial ceremony ; rather, he blatantly copies David's behavior in several interactions with her, especially in his opening lines of apology. If nothing else, at least he learned something in the way of positivity and conflict-solving skills from David, which is partially what has "rubbed off" on Max that Nikki mentions in the season premiere.
The other part is a generally calmer nature and occasional willingness to help in his own way such as his unique method of wrangling money in " The Fun-Raiser " and grand master plan to take back the camp in " Camp Corp. In , Boeing began to discuss a successor for the NG. For a while, as the plane maker mulled the next step, it considered both replacing the with a brand-new airplane, or re-engining the NG with more efficient engines, and making other changes for a newer generation.
By summer , Boeing still hadn't made a decision, and analysts expected that it wouldn't until the following year. Boeing knew the Aneo was coming, but was still taking its time to decide on the ideal, productive, and most sustainable solution to combat it — in spring , the company was still leaning toward building a new plane, rather than re-engining the existing airframe.
Then, W. James McNerney, Jr. Arpey reportedly said that his airline was close to a deal for hundreds of Airbus narrow-body aircraft, warning that Boeing had to be more aggressive and timely to win its business. Until that point, American Airlines had exclusively purchased from Boeing for more than a decade. Desperate to win the order, Boeing ditched the idea of designing a whole new airplane — which could take up to 10 years to get in the air — and instead pivoted to placing new engines on the to create another new generation of the workhorse.
It took a few months to finalize the design, but it wasn't quite fast enough to prevent American Airlines from defecting. In July, the carrier announced its order for Aceo and Aneo jets, with an option for more. It also said that it would order of Boeing's not-quite-ready next-generation Just one month later, Boeing announced the Max family, consisting of three differently sized models: the Max 7, Max 8, and Max 9.
The design of the Max had a few appeals for both Boeing and, more importantly, the airline customers to which it had to sell the planes. As with the transition from the Classic to the NG, the Max retained a great degree of commonality with its predecessors, meaning one pool of pilots and ground staff could work on both planes, with some supplementary training, rather than having to be certified on a new aircraft type.
Pilots ultimately were only required to take a brief tablet-based course, rather than training in a simulator, like they would for a new plane. The fact that it was an existing, already certified airframe, which comprise the body and wings of the plane, only with new engines and avionics, it meant that Boeing would not have to undergo the same lengthy certification process it would for an all-new airplane.
The desire to retain that commonality is what eventually led to the two crashes, here's why The engines on the Max were larger, positioned further forward, and higher up on the wing than the engines on the NG. That caused the plane to behave differently. For example, it could cause the nose of the plane to pitch upward in some situations, like low-speed flight, or flight with a high angle-of-attack, when the plane is being flown manually.
To compensate for that, Boeing designed automated software called Maneuvering Control Augmentation System MCAS , which would automatically activate to stabilize the pitch and nudge the aircraft's nose back down "so that it feels and flies like other s. With that in place, the Max could share the same type of rating as the NG, and pilots could fly the two families of interchangeably — meaning airlines could have one pool of pilots capable of flying both planes.
Notably, however, Boeing did not include training on MCAS in the pilots' manual, reasoning that the software would work in the background. The manual did include discussion about the trim stabilizer, however. MCAS would only activate when the plane was being hand-flown, meaning when autopilot was off. The plane would have to be flying relatively slowly, and the nose would have to be pointing high enough — or the angle-of-attack would need to be high enough — to be at risk of causing the plane to stall.
Crucially, MCAS was designed to take effect when just a single sensor showed that the angle-of-attack was high. That meant that if one of the two sensors was damaged or faulty, it could activate. When the Max was announced, it already had a not-quite-firm order from American Airlines. By November , Boeing said that it had commitments. Fast-forward almost exactly four years to August the first Max fuselage rolled off the factory line, and in December, the first plane — a Max 8 named "Spirit of Renton — was finished.
The plane was eventually delivered to Southwest. On January 29, , the Max made its first test flight, performing without any unusual incidents. Following a year of test flights and data-gathering, the Max gained certification from the FAA in March , followed by other global regulators later that month. There was a brief snag in May, when engine manufacturer CFM International warned Boeing of a possible manufacturing issue involving turbines in the engine.
Boeing halted test flights to inspect the engines, but cleared them within about a week. This issue is not believed to be involved in any way associated with the crashes. The first passenger flight took off on May Deliveries picked up from there, with Norwegian Air taking the second Max.
It took advantage of the Max's extended range to fly a narrow-body transatlantic nonstop between Edinburgh, United Kingdom, and Bradley International Airport in Connecticut. Southwest, the launch customer, took delivery of its first Max in late-August in Dallas, making it the first North American carrier to fly the jet.
Today, it's the biggest Max operator in the US. By May — a year after the first delivery — more than Max planes were in service with 28 different airlines around the world. The Max had flown almost 42, flights in that time, moving about 6. By October 27, , of the Max planes had been delivered to customers around the world.
On October 29 at a. The plane being used for that flight, a Max 8, had given incorrect speed and altitude readings on a previous trip, but was kept in service anyway. There were shades here of the great F1 rivalries.
Early in the season Hamilton and Verstappen had briefly touched several times, with both to an extent giving way to avoid a major incident. Now the tension is ratcheting up with only five points between them, their clash at the British GP still fresh in the memory, and that spirit of rapprochement is rapidly disappearing.
Neither is willing to cede position or show weakness that might be exploited. At Monza the resulting clash had an almost inevitable air. After a frenetic start the racing had settled down through the pitstops when their race came to head in the briefest of moments turning though the first, Rettifilo chicane.
Hamilton had exited from his pit stop, emerged wheel to wheel with Verstappen and the pair went into the first chicane together.
Verstappen climbed out, glanced at Hamilton in his cockpit and immediately strode away. The accident was life-threatening.
