Though not at the 2017 Paris Air Show in the flesh, Boeing launched the 737 Max 10 at Le Bourget. Pitched to trade reps as being capable of delivering "the highest efficiency, reliability and passenger comfort in the single-aisle market," it's slightly longer than the Max 9 (at 43.8 m compared to 42.16 m) and can seat 10 more passengers. But it does have a shorter range (3,215 km compared to the Max 9's 3.515 km).(Credit: Boeing)
