*Orders and deliveries are as of December 31, 2013.
The Boeing 737 is the world’s best-selling family
of commercial jetliners. Today’s Next-Generation
737-700, -800 and -900ER models incorporate
the latest advanced technology and design
features that improve fuel efficiency and reduce
operating costs while delivering superior pas-
senger satisfaction. The Next-Generation 737
offers the best on-time schedule performance
in the industry. It spans the entire 126- to 220-
seat market with ranges of approximately 3,000
nautical miles (5,500 kilometers). This flexibility
gives operators the ability to respond effectively
to market needs. The 737 family also includes
four models of Boeing Business Jets (BBJ) —
derivatives of the Next-Generation 737-700,
737-700 Convertible, 737-800 and 737-900ER.
Launched as a formal program in August 2011,
the 737 MAX is a family of airplanes that builds
on the strengths of the Next-Generation 737. The
737 MAX will deliver 14 percent fuel savings and
an 8 percent per-seat operating cost advantage
over its nearest competitor in its category,
resulting from new CFM International LEAP-1B
engines, a more efficient structural design,
advanced technology winglets and lower
maintenance requirements. Every 737 MAX will
be fitted with the 737 Boeing Sky Interior, giving
passengers a more spacious cabin, overhead
bins that disappear into the ceiling while carrying
more luggage, and soothing LED lighting. Since
its launch, the 737 MAX has logged more than
1,700 orders from airlines and leasing customers
worldwide. First flight is planned for 2016 and first
delivery in 2017.

The Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental
747-8 Freighter
Boeing launched the new 747-8 family—Freighter
and Intercontinental—in late 2005. The airplanes
feature a new wing and engine combination,
an updated flight deck, a longer fuselage and
new advanced structural materials. The 747-8
Freighter was certified in August 2011, and
first delivery followed in October. The Freighter
carries 16 percent more cargo volume than the
747-400 Freighter and is the industry’s only nose-
cargo-loading jet. The 747-8 Intercontinental
is offered as either a Boeing Business Jets
aircraft or as a passenger plane. The passenger
plane has an interior inspired by the Boeing 787
Dreamliner™, including a sculpted ceiling, LED
dynamic lighting, larger bins and a new staircase
design. The Intercontinental was certified in
2011, and first delivery was in February 2012. The
Intercontinental is the only airplane in the 400- to
500-seat market, seating 467 passengers in a
typical three-class configuration (51 more than
the 747-400). Both the passenger and freighter
variants of the 747-8 have an increased maximum
takeoff weight of 987,000 pounds (447,700 kilo-
grams) and represent a new benchmark in fuel
efficiency and noise reduction, allowing airlines
to lower fuel costs and fly into more airports at
more times of the day.

767-300ER
The Boeing 767 Freighter
767-200ER
767-2C
The 767 Freighter shares all the advancements in
avionics, aerodynamics, materials and propulsion
that contribute to the success of the 767-300ER
passenger airplane. Excellent fuel efficiency,
operational flexibility, low noise levels and an
all-digital flight deck allow the 767 Freighter
to support time-critical cargo schedules even
at airports with stringent noise and emissions
standards. The 767-300ER, which is 21 feet
(6.4 meters) longer than the original 767-200ER,
offers 20 percent more passenger seating than
the 767-200ER and has a range of almost
6,000 nautical miles (11,112 kilometers). Boeing
Business Jets versions of the 767-300ER and
767-400ER are available for VIP customers.
Also available is the 767-2C, a new commercial
freighter based on the 767-200ER. The 767-2Cs
will be provisioned commercial baseline airplanes
modified into U.S. Air Force KC-46A Tankers.
