ISSUE DESCRIPTION
Description of the issue:
Boeing 737-Max can barely climb out in Career Mode on an Employee Mission. Full throttles, Vr, barely gets off the ground. VNAV mode won’t climb. Have to use V/S and after 20000’, it can’t get above 221 knots and refuses to climb further.
Note - there is no predefined tag for the 737 so I had to include the 787 tag or it wouldn’t let me submit the bug report. This is an issue with the 737 Max, not the 787.
If applicable, which aircraft is experiencing this issue:
Boeing 737 Max
[PC Only] Did you remove all your community mods/add-ons? If yes, are you still experiencing the issue?

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE
How often does this occur for you (Example: Just once, every time on sim load, intermittently)?
Every time I fly the 737 in Career Mode
REPRODUCTION STEPS
Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:
- Start an Airplane Passenger Transport employee mission with the 737 Max 8
- Do all preflight or skip to Taxi and skip to Takeoff.
- Full throttle, speed tape shows Vr exceeded (up to 160 knots indicated).
- Rotate. Plane barely gets off the runway and can hardly climb.
- VNAV won’t climb. V/S climbs, but the higher you get, the weaker the climb until 21000’ it simply won’t climb further. Engines at 86%, stuck at 220 kts and zero vertical speed.
