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 425 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. That's a well-established type that mechanics, pilots and regulators know very well.
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 →

History of Flight According to the flight crew, the captain was the pilot flying and the first officer (FO) was the pilot monitoring. The captain said that while reviewing the logbook before the flight, he noted a previously recorded yaw damper discrepancy described as “the yaw damper over-correcting in flight”. He recalled that the corrective action consisted of resetting a few stall management yaw damper computer codes. The preflight, pushback, and initial taxi segments of the flight were uneventful.
