May 22, 2027 - Boeing executives have made the difficult decision to halt production of the fifth-generation 737 Max. A diverse team of developers had been working diligently for the past 10 years to create a new aircraft that encapsulates the company's commitment to provide equitable air travel for all people.
The project faced setbacks early on, with the engineers struggling to integrate the theoretical concepts proposed by the company's philosophical and historical justice departments. The clash between the abstract ideas and the rigid demands of aviation engineering has led to numerous failures in the initial prototypes.
As engineering issues have compounded, the project remains decades behind schedule, which is the chief reason that Boeing has finally caved to pressure from stakeholders and regulatory bodies to discontinue the program.
