> I will not fly the 737 MAX unless and until it has its own type certificate

then you will never be able to fly one. It cannot get its own type certificate.

First off, sure it could go through certification de novo to get its own type certificate. Does not mean Boeing will do that (it is antithetical to their purpose with the aircraft).

I am happy not flying on it as a 737-typed aircraft.

A new type certificate cannot use grandfather rights. The 737 max would not qualify for one by current standards.
