aviat··on Boeing's upgraded 737 Max completes first flight with media onboard
Curious about the engineering of the 737 Max compared to NG,

Where can I find info about the differences and improvements in terms of aerodynamics, structures, materials and systems?

For example,

Does the Max have a composite wing box?

What percentage of the Max is composite, compared to the NG?

Do the wings use the same airfoil section?

Have they been re-lofted, re-twisted?

Are there any changes to the high life devices?

Have there been any changes to the materials, gauge, design for the fuselage?
