English: An overlay diagram showing five of the largest airplanes ever built, the Hughes H-4 Spruce Goose (airplane with the greatest height), the Antonov An-225 Mriya (the largest airplane), the Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental (the largest version of the Boeing 747 Jumbojet), the Airbus A380-800 (the largest passenger airplane), and the Scaled Composites Stratolaunch (airplane with the greatest ...
This is a list of aircraft by date and usage. The date shown is the introduction of the first model of a line but not the current model. For instance, while "the most popular" aircraft, such as Boeing 737 and 747 were introduced in 1960x, their recent models were revealed in the 21st century. [1]
The Boeing 737 is an American narrow-body aircraft produced by Boeing at its Renton factory in Washington.Developed to supplement the Boeing 727 on short and thin routes, the twinjet retained the 707 fuselage width and six abreast seating but with two underwing Pratt & Whitney JT8D low-bypass turbofan engines.
During the late 1990s, Boeing considered replacement aircraft programs due to slowing sales of the 767 and 747-400.Two new aircraft were proposed. The 747X would have lengthened the 747-400 and improved efficiency, and the Sonic Cruiser would have achieved 15% higher speeds (approximately Mach 0.98) while burning fuel at the same rate as the 767.

The Boeing 720 lacked an auxiliary power unit, and relied instead on ground power and pneumatic air to power the aircraft's systems, provide air conditioning, and start the engines while on the ground. The normal practice for Boeing 720 aircraft was to start the number three (inner starboard) engine first, then disconnect ground power and air.
The Signature Interior has since been adapted for other Boeing wide-body and narrow-body aircraft, including 737NG, 747-400, 757-300, and newer 767 models, including all 767-400ER models. [ 161 ] [ 162 ] The 747-8 and 767-400ER have also adopted the larger, more rounded windows of the original 777.
