New flight deck screens within the first 737 MAX have come to life: luminous panels that indicate that power flows through the first plane on the production line.

"The 'on' is an important milestone because it is the first time that the systems in the aircraft integrate and talk to each other," said Rachel Kelley, 737 MAX leader in First Flight Leader for Airplane Development.

"On" is a step in the production of airplanes that normally occurs during final assembly, after all sections of the aircraft come together and the wiring is connected.
