Akasa Air from India will soon start operating its first Boeing 737-8200 Max. After Ryanair, it will become the second airline to operate this very high density 737-800Max variant. Equiped with an extra after-wing emergency exit, this 737-800Max variant is certified to transport a whopping 212 passengers in a high density (crammed) setup. The extra emergency exit is added to comply with safety regulations, allowing 212 passengers opposed to the 189 of the regular 737-8max.

I am starting a small series on the "odd variants" of some aircraft types. This is the first post 🙂 Please upvote if you would like to see more ✈️

Honeywell owns a 757-200 with RR-engines. They have fitted their 757 with a small, 3rd, wing to test avionics, engines and other instruments. So far it has carried a jet engine, prop engine and instruments..

It is an early 757 from 1983: the 5th delivered 757. Delivered to the now defunct Eastern Airlines. Honeywell aquired it in 2005 as N757HW.
