The schedule is what's experiencing overruns, not the plane.
Was it a typo, or is the Leap-X 1B really 1012% more efficient than the CFM56-7BE currently used? If that's correct, that's an impressive jump, and long live the 737!
Is the "schedule" not on track due to supply chain management delays?
Joshua: 10-12%, someone dropped the dash.
