This is an Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) version of the 737NG. [10] Delta Air Lines received the first Next-Gen 737 model with this brake package, a 737-700, at the end of July 2008. [87] Entry into service with launch operator Southwest Airlines was expected in January 2019' but the airline deferred these orders until 2023–2024. This new improvement is said to shave at least 1% off the overall drag and have some weight benefits. The thrust reverser doors were set 35 degrees away from the vertical to allow the exhaust to be deflected inboard and over the wings and outboard and under the wings. [18] Lufthansa was the only significant customer to purchase the 737-100 and only 30 aircraft were produced. In 2010, new interior options for the 737NG included the 787-style Boeing Sky Interior. [12], The proposed wing airfoil sections were based on those of the 707 and 727, but somewhat thicker; altering these sections near the nacelles achieved a substantial drag reduction at high Mach numbers. [44] A total of 69 have been produced with the last aircraft delivered to WestJet in 2006. The fourth generation 737 MAX series, launched August 2011. The P-8 can be operated in the anti-submarine warfare (ASW), anti-surface warfare (ASUW), and shipping interdiction roles. ], An analysis by Boeing on commercial jet airplane accidents in the period 1959–2017 showed that the Next Generation series had a hull loss rate of 0.17 per million departures compared to 0.71 for the classic series and 1.75 for the original series. [67] The name was short-lived. The 737 has evolved four winglet types: the 737-200 Mini-winglet, 737 Classic/NG Blended Winglet, 737 Split Scimitar Winglet, and 737 MAX Advanced Technology Winglet.

View the Boeing 737-800 seat map (PDF). [72], On August 30, 2011, Boeing confirmed the launch of the 737 new engine variant, to be called the Boeing 737 MAX. The main development was to re-engine with the high pressure ratio CFM56-7. Maximum altitude. The Boeing 737 Original is the name given to the -100/200 and -200 Advanced series of the Boeing 737 family. Worldwide, the first airline to resume passenger service was Brazilian low-cost Gol, on December 9, 2020. [34] The fourth generation 737 MAX supersedes the third generation 737NG. Informally referred to as the Gator (an abbreviation of "navigator") and "Flying Classroom", nineteen of these aircraft were delivered to the Air Training Command at Mather AFB, California during 1973 and 1974. Flying a American Airlines Boeing 737-800 soon? The high-density variant of the MAX 8 features a maximum capacity of 200 seats, specially built for low and ultra-low-cost carriers. Planes & Seat Maps > Boeing 737-800 (738) KLM Seat Maps. In the midyear 2020, the FAA and Boeing conducted a series of recertification test flights. Many countries operate the 737 passenger, BBJ, and cargo variants in government or military applications. [40][41] This improved on the previous interior of the Boeing 757-200 and the Boeing 737 Classic variants, the new interior became optional on the 757-200. The initial concept featured podded engines on the aft fuselage, a T-tail as with the 727, and five-abreast seating. Parties of 3 or more can book adjacent seats together. Like Boeing's other 737 MAX models, the MAX 10 incorporates the latest technology CFM International LEAP-1B engines, Advanced Technology winglets, Boeing Sky Interior, large flight deck displays, and other improvements to deliver the highest efficiency. This aircraft reflects an upgraded interior featuring Main Cabin Extra seating. Lufthansa became the launch customer on February 19, 1965,[12] with an order for 21 aircraft, worth $67 million[11] after the airline had been assured by Boeing that the 737 project would not be canceled. It was the highest-selling commercial aircraft until being surpassed by the competing Airbus A320 family in October 2019, but maintaining the record in total deliveries. The newest 737 variants, the 737 MAX series, feature LEAP-1B engines from CFMI with a 68 inches (1.73 m) fan diameter. The latest generation, the 737 MAX -7/8/9/10, powered by improved CFM LEAP-1B high bypass turbofans and accommodating 138 to 204 people, entered service in 2017. Die Boeing 737 des US-amerikanischen Flugzeugherstellers Boeing ist die weltweit meistgebaute Familie strahlgetriebener Verkehrsflugzeuge. Alaska Airlines was the first to convert one of their 400s from regular service to an aircraft with the ability to handle 10 pallets. Production of the P-8 Poseidon variant continues. At the time, Boeing was far behind its competitors; rival aircraft in service SE 210 Caravelle and in development, the BAC One-Eleven (BAC-111), Douglas DC-9, and Fokker F28 were already into flight certification. [151], The 737 is operated by more than 500 airlines, flying to 1,200 destinations in 190 countries: over 4,500 are in service and at any given time there are on average 1,250 airborne worldwide. The United States Navy was the launch customer for the 737-700C under the military designation C-40 Clipper. [157] Users with 737s include: Boeing delivered the 5,000th 737 to Southwest Airlines on February 13, 2006, the 6,000th 737 to Norwegian Air Shuttle in April 2009,[158] the 8,000th 737 to United Airlines on April 16, 2014. The P-8 Poseidon (formerly Multimission Maritime Aircraft) developed for the United States Navy by Boeing Defense, Space & Security, based on the Next Generation 737-800ERX. The Boeing 737 Original is the name given to the -100/200 and -200 Advanced series of the Boeing 737 family. [13] The engine chosen was the Pratt & Whitney JT8D-1 low-bypass ratio turbofan engine, delivering 14,500 lbf (64 kN) thrust. The original 737 continued to be developed into thirteen passenger, cargo, corporate and military variants. This version of the flydubai Boeing 737-800 aircraft is configured with 189 Economy Class seats. The launch customer Alaska Airlines received the delivery on May 15, 2001. [3] Boeing stopped assembling commercial 737NGs in 2019 and made the final deliveries in January 2020. [168] As of November 2020[update], 14,668 units of the Boeing 737 family had been ordered, with 4,082 units to be delivered, or 3,333 when including "additional criteria for recognizing contracted backlog with customers beyond the existence of a firm contract" (ASC 606 Adjustment). Among disadvantages: lack of floor storage during take-off and landing, restricted storage space in overhead bins as equipment is usually stored here and proximity of the galley and lavatory. Before the aircraft can fly again, repairs must be implemented and airlines' training programs must be approved. The MAX 8, the first variant of the 737 MAX, has a longer fuselage than the MAX 7. [45] The smallest model offered was then the 737-700. [1] The 737-600 replaced the 737-500 and is similar to the Airbus A318. United wanted a slightly larger capacity than the 737-100, so the fuselage was stretched 36 in (91 cm) ahead of, and 40 in (102 cm) behind the wing. It was launched in 1987 by Southwest Airlines, with an order for 20 aircraft,[62] and flew for the first time on June 30, 1989. This aircraft is equipped with Acro seats fitted to provide more space and comfort for passengers. The Next Generation 737 interior was also adopted on the Boeing 757-300. The BBJ3 is approximately 16 feet longer than the 737-800/BBJ2, and has a slightly shorter range. They were used as Maritime reconnaissance (MPA)/transport aircraft, fitted with SLAMMAR (Side-looking Multi-mission Airborne Radar). Alaska Airlines launched the 737-900 in 1997 and accepted the delivery on May 15, 2001. ", Sweetman, Bill, All mouth, Air & Space, September 2014, p.14, CS1 maint: multiple names: authors list (, Dekkers, Daniel, et al. The -500 incorporated the improvements of the 737 Classic series, allowing longer routes with fewer passengers to be more economical than with the 737-300. [93] It was first flown from Renton on January 13, 2019 and was due to enter service in April 2019.

The Boeing 737 MAX is the name given to the main MAX 7/8/9/10 series and high-density MAX 200 variant of the Boeing 737 family. [51], The wing also incorporated changes for improved aerodynamics. 737 MAX 7 737 MAX 8 737 MAX 9 737 MAX 10; Seats (2-class) 138 – 153: 162 – 178: 178 – 193: 188 – 204: Maximum seats: 172: 210: 220: 230: Range nm (km) 3,850 (7,130) 3,550 (6,570) 3,550 (6,570)* 3,300 (6,110)* Length: 35.56 m (116 ft 8 in) 39.52 m (129 ft 8 in) 42.16 m (138 ft 4 in) 43.8 m (143 ft 8 in) Wingspan: 35.9 m (117 ft 10 in) 35.9 m (117 ft 10 in) 35.9 m (117 ft 10 in) If the latter is the case, the aircraft is inspected by maintenance personnel for damage and then returned to service if none is found. In the late 1980s, Boeing marketed the 77-33 jet, a business jet version of the 737-300. About one quarter of the global NG fleet of 6,300 aircraft have to be inspected. The second "Classic" generation: 737-300, -400 and 500 series, launched in 1979. [155] In 2005, three ex-Boeing employees filed a lawsuit on behalf of the U.S. government, claiming that dozens of 737NG contained defective structural elements supplied by airframe manufacturer Ducommun, allegations denied by Boeing. Which gives travelers priority boarding, extra legroom and faster disembarking for a fee of €17/£15. On Day 4 the fuselage is crane-lifted and rotated 90 degrees, wings are mated to the airplane in a six-hour process, along with landing gear, and the airplane is again rotated 90°. [61], The 737-500 was offered as a modern and direct replacement of the 737-200. [141], On October 11, 1999 Boeing launched the BBJ2. View the Boeing 737-800 seat map (PDF). They chose the CFM56-3B-1 high-bypass turbofan engine to power the aircraft, which yielded significant gains in fuel economy and a reduction in noise, but also posed an engineering challenge, given the low ground clearance of the 737 and the larger diameter of the engine over the original Pratt & Whitney engines. The first 737-900ER was rolled out of the Renton, Washington factory on August 8, 2006, for its launch customer, Lion Air, an Indonesian low-cost airline. The -100/200 original variants were powered by Pratt & Whitney JT8D low-bypass engines and offered seating for 85 to 130 passengers. [18], The 737-200 was a 737-100 with an extended fuselage, launched by an order from United Airlines in 1965 and entered service with the launch customer in April 1968. The main development was to re-engine with CFM LEAP-1B very high bypass ratio. [147] However, in July 2017, Airbus had still 1,350 more A320neo orders than Boeing had for the 737 MAX. [29] A 48-inch tailpipe extension was added and new, target-style, thrust reversers were incorporated. The leading-edge slats and trailing-edge flaps were adjusted. The 737 MAX, designed to compete with the A320neo, was grounded worldwide between March 2019 and November 2020 following two fatal crashes. [67], The 737-700ER (Extended Range) was launched on January 31, 2006 and featured the fuselage of the 737-700 and the wings and landing gear of the 737-800. Launched in 1980 and introduced in 1984, the 737 Classic -300/400/500 variants were re-engined with CFM56-3 turbofans and offered 110 to 168 seats. The 737 MAX-7 seating capacity is now 153 in two class configs or 172 pax in high density config, with a 76in (1.93m) fuselage stretch. The MAX 8 would seat between 162 to 178 passengers, while the MAX 9 would seat 178 to 193 passengers, depending on the configuration. Specifications. [11], The CFM56-7B Evolution nacelle began testing in August 2009 to be used on the new 737 PIP (Performance Improvement Package) due to enter service mid-2011. [4], Boeing had been studying short-haul jet aircraft designs, and saw a need for a new aircraft to supplement the 727 on short and thin routes. STS is triggered by airspeed sensor and commands Airplane Nose Down as the airplane slows down.[39]. [184], Following the crashes of two 737 MAX 8 aircraft, Lion Air Flight 610 in October 2018 and Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 in March 2019, which caused 346 deaths, national aviation authorities around the world grounded the 737 MAX series. The Boeing 737 AEW&C is a 737-700IGW roughly similar to the 737-700ER. The first -100 was rolled out on January 17, 1967 and took its maiden flight on April 9, 1967, piloted by Brien Wygle and Lew Wallick,[17] and several test flights, the FAA issued Type Certificate A16WE certifying the 737-100 for commercial flight on December 15, 1967. The value of a new -700 stayed around $35 million from 2008 to 2018, a 2003 aircraft was valued for $15.5 million in 2016 and $12 million in 2018 and will be scrapped for $6 million by 2023. [50] This first major upgrade series was later renamed to the 737 Classic series. [46] [118][119], The original 737 with JT8D engines that span the entire wing chord, The 737 Classic with stubbier and wider CFM56s ahead of the wings, The 737NG has a 25% larger and 16 ft (5 m) wider wing, The 737 MAX has larger CFM LEAP engines with chevrons, Engines on the 737 Classic series (−300, −400, −500) and Next-Generation series (−600, −700, −800, −900) do not have circular inlets like most aircraft but rather a planform on the lower side, which has been dictated largely by the need to accommodate ever larger engine diameters. Winglets were not an option. [180], During the 1990s, a series of rudder issues on series -200 and -300 aircraft resulted in multiple incidents. The Boeing 767-300ER which is a derivative of the -300 model is equipped with a central fuel tank for additional coverage and additional seating capacity. It is armed with torpedoes, Harpoon anti-ship missiles and other weapons, and is able to drop and monitor sonobuoys, as well as operate in conjunction with other assets such as the Northrop Grumman MQ-4C Triton maritime surveillance unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Maximum take-off weight. The prototype 737−800 rolled out on June 30, 1997, and first flew on July 31, 1997, piloted by Jim McRoberts and again by Hewett. This reduced the downforce on the main wheels thereby reducing the effectiveness of the wheel brakes. The first BBJ rolled out on August 11, 1998 and flew for the first time on September 4. [66] The 737-700 replaced the 737-300 and competes with the Airbus A319. Electrical wiring is installed on Day 2 and hydraulic machinery on Day 3. The 737 continued to evolve into many variants but still remains recognisable as the 737. Premium seat pitch.

WestJet was to launch the 737-600 with winglets, but dropped them in 2006. [142][143], The Boeing Converted Freighter program (BCF), or the 737-800BCF program, was launched by Boeing in 2016. Based on the 737-800, it is 19 feet 2 inches (5.84 m) longer than the BBJ, with 25% more cabin space and twice the baggage space, but has slightly reduced range. In 2011, Boeing launched the 737 MAX, an updated and re-engined version of the 737NG with more efficient CFM International LEAP-1B engines, and aerodynamic changes with distinctive split-tip winglets. [13][14] The federal judge presiding the case sided with Boeing, and a subsequent court of appeal also ruled in favor of the company. Some were modified into CT-43s, which are used to transport passengers, and one was modified as the NT-43A Radar Test Bed. [169], In 2019, 737 orders dropped by 90%, as 737 MAX orders dried up after the March grounding. The 737-700, the first variant of the Next-Generation, was launched in November 1993 with an order of 63 aircraft.

This comprised 39 -600s, 1,027 -700s, 4,764 -800s and 513 -900s. For many airlines in the U.S., the 737-800 replaced aging Boeing 727-200 trijets. The NMA project was set aside in January 2020, as Boeing focused on returning the 737 MAX to service and announced that it would be taking a new approach to future projects.[109]. A 737-700 can typically accommodate 126 passengers in two classes. This Boeing 737-800 seats 160 passengers and is primarily used on domestic routes. [3] The 737-800 is the most common variant of the 737NG and is the most widely used narrowbody aircraft. It retains the MTOW, fuel capacity, trading range for payload and also the exit configuration of the −800, limiting its seat capacity to approximately 177 in a two class and 189 in a high-density, one class layout. Customers include: GOL, Alaska Airlines, Air Europa, Air India, Egyptair, GE Commercial Aviation Services (GECAS), Hapagfly, Japan Airlines, Pegasus Airlines, Ryanair, Sky Airlines and Turkish Airlines.[137]. This Boeing 737-800 has 189 seats in a two class configuration. [20] Of the 810 examined aircraft over 30,000 cycles, 38 had structural cracks (4.7%), leaving 1,911 737NGs over 22,600 cycles to be inspected within their next 1,000 cycles, most of the US in-service fleet of 1,930. It made its roll-out on March 7, 2017, and first flight on April 13, 2017;[96] It was certified by February 2018. As early 737NG aircraft become available on the market they are actively marketed to be converted to cargo planes via the Boeing Converted Freighter design as the operational economics are attractive due to the low operating costs and availability of certified pilots on a robust airframe. 153 passengers.
