Boeing B737

Boeing 737 is without any doubt one of the most important commercial airliners in the entire aviation history (along with B747). For short - medium range or lower passenger destinations (still very popular for city hoppers - business and tourism passengers). Since the first B737 -100 (DC9 time), mainly due to the increase of market demand, the latest 737-900ER which carries more than 200 passengers, but still B737-800 (around 180 passenger capacity and the range around 3000nm) is the most popular choice from the world airlines after 4 decades!!

Similar airplanes: MD90, A320

Smaller but still capable of replacement: Embraer E-Jets , Bombardier CSeries

Currently planned new generation model: Boeing Y1
