What kind of aircraft is this?

The Boeing 737 is a twin-engine, single-aisle jet airliner that has been in production since the 1960s through several generations (Original, Classic, Next-Generation and MAX). It is one of the most widely flown airliner families in the world, used for short and medium-haul routes.

In plain terms, it's a jet (turbofan) multi-engine airplane. Certification: Type certificated (factory design approved by the FAA).

There are 4 aircraft of this exact model variant on the US register, and about 2,878 Boeing aircraft with closely related model designations, out of 317,717 registered aircraft in total.

An aircraft's age on its own says little about how safe it is: airliners are maintained on strict, regulator-approved schedules, and inspections become more detailed as aircraft get older. More about the Boeing 737 →
