Development
The Boeing 767 was first offered for sale in July 1978 with an order for 30 airliners by United Airlines. United Air Lines Inc, trading as United Airlines ( is a major airline of the United States. It was developed at the same time as the 757, its narrowbody sister. [5] Prior to its public offering, it was referred to as the 7X7. [6] With the 707 aging, Boeing decided to offer a mid-size wide-body aircraft to fit in between the 727/737/757 and the 747. WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft.

Please see WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft/page content for recommended layout WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft. Please see WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft/page content for recommended layout WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft. Please see WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft/page content for recommended layout The 767 has a fuselage width of 15 ft 6 in (472. 44 cm) that is midway between the two other aircraft.
The first 767, a -200 was rolled out 4 August 1981 and first flew on 26 September 1981. Events 70 - The Destruction of the Second Temple in Jerusalem by the Romans. Year 1981 ( MCMLXXXI) was a Common year starting on Thursday (link displays the 1981 Events 46 BC - Julius Caesar dedicates a Year 1981 ( MCMLXXXI) was a Common year starting on Thursday (link displays the 1981 [5] Boeing planned to offer a shorter 767-100 with seating for 180 passengers,[7] but was never offered for sale as the capacity was too close to the 757's. [8]
The 767 was designed using engines used on the 747 with wings sized to match. The wings were larger and provided longer range than the initial customers wanted. However, the larger wings only increased fuel usage slightly and provided better takeoff and landing performance. Boeing designed the 767 with enough range to fly across North America and across the northern Atlantic. [9]
The flight decks of the Boeing 757 and 767 are very similar and as a result, after a short conversion course, pilots rated in the 757 are also qualified to fly the 767 and vice versa. The 767 was approved for U. S. CAT IIIb operation in March 1984. The Instrument Landing System (ILS is a ground-based Instrument approach system that provides precision guidance to an Aircraft approaching a Runway This revision permitted operations with minimums as low as RVR 300 (Runway Visual Range 300 feet). It was the first aircraft certificated for CAT IIIb by the U. S. [10]
In the late 1980s, Boeing proposed a stretched version of the 767, and then a partial double deck version with parts of a 757 fuselage built over the aft (rear) fuselage. [11][12] These concepts were not accepted and Boeing shifted to an all new airliner that would become the 777. [13] Boeing would later develop a stretched 767 version in the form of the 767-400ER in the late 1990s.
The 767 sold very well from the late 1980s to the late 1990s, with a decrease during the recession in the early 1990s. British Airways plc ( is the national Airline and Flag carrier of the United Kingdom and one of the largest in Europe After strong sales in 1997, sales have declined significantly, due to the economic recession of the early 2000s, increased competition from Airbus, and the recent emergence of a direct replacement program, the Boeing 787. Airbus SAS (ˈɛərbʌs in English, Airbus2ogg|/ɛʁbys/]] in French, and /ˈɛːɐbʊs/ in German) is an aircraft manufacturing WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft. Please see WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft/page content for recommended layout Boeing has kept the line open due to KC-767 tanker program, which use the 767 airframe. In early 2007, United Parcel Service and DHL have prolonged the 767's production with orders for 767-300 freighters of 27 and 6, respectively. United Parcel Service Inc ( commonly referred to as UPS, is one of the world's largest Package delivery companies DHL (originally standing for Dalsey Hillblom and Lynn) is a Deutsche Post World Net company of Germany that provides international mail [14][15]
The renewed interest in the 767-300 freighter has Boeing considering enhanced versions of the 767-200 and 767-300 freighter, with increased gross weights, 767-400ER wing technology, and 777-200 avionics. [16] Boeing sees the advanced 767-200F and 767-300F as complementing the 777F, and allowing Boeing to compete more effectively against the A330-200F, which is larger than the proposed 767-200F and 767-300F, but smaller than the 777F.
As of April 2008, the Boeing 767 has 1011 orders, with 962 of those delivered. [1] Delta Air Lines is currently the world's largest 767 operator, with approximately 102 airplanes, including the 767-300, 767-300ER, and 767-400ER. Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, their hub, has the highest number of Boeing 767 operations in the world.
Design
The Boeing 767 is a low-wing cantilever monoplane with a conventional tail unit with a single fin and rudder. It has a retractable tricycle landing gear and is powered by two wing mounted turbofan engines.
The 767 offers a twin aisle configuration of 2+3+2 in economy with the most common business configuration of 2+2+2. It is possible in some charter configurations to squeeze an extra seat for a 2+4+2 configuration. However, the seats are very narrow and this is not common. The 767 has a seat-to-aisle ratio in economy class of an efficient 3. 5 seats per aisle, allowing for quicker food service and quicker exit of the airplane than many other jetliners, which typically have four to six seats per aisle in economy class.
It can carry freight in Unit Load Devices such as LD2s and LD8s. A unit load device, or ULD is a Pallet or container used to load luggage freight and mail on Wide-body aircraft and specific Narrow-body aircraft Its fuselage width does not allow larger ULDs such as LD6s, LD11s, and LD3s. One of the design requirements of the 767's replacement, the Boeing 787, was for it to use the LD3/6/11 family of ULDs to solve the wasted volume issue. WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft.

Newer 767-200s and 767-300s, as well as all 767-400ERs, feature a 777-style cabin interior, also known as the "Boeing Signature Interior". WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft. Please see WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft/page content for recommended layout The 767-400ER also features larger windows exactly like those found on the 777. All new 767s built feature the Signature Interior, and it is also available as a retrofit for older 767s. In addition to the Boeing Signature Interior retrofit option, a simpler mod known as the "Boeing 767 Enhanced Interior" is available. This retrofit borrows styling elements from the Boeing Signature Interior; however, the outer section overhead bins are traditional-style shelf bins rather than the 777-style pivot bins.
Variants
There are three variants of the 767, which were launched on three separate occasions. El Al (אל על skyward) ( TASE: ELAL is the National airline of Israel. Although there are a total of three variants, several versions have been produced.
767-200
The first model of the 767, and was launched in 1978 and entered service with United Airlines in 1982. United Air Lines Inc, trading as United Airlines ( is a major airline of the United States. [5] This model is used mainly for continental routes such as New York City to Los Angeles. The City of New York Los Angeles (lɑˈsændʒələs los ˈaŋxeles in Spanish) is the largest City in the state of California and the American West The 767-200 typically is outfitted with 181 seats in a 3-class layout or 224 in a 2-class layout. All -200 models have a capacity limit of 255 due to exit-door limitations. An additional exit door can be specified when the aircraft is ordered to allow for up to 290 seats in a high capacity all Coach (30 in pitch 2+4+2) layout.
The 767-200ER extended-range variant was first delivered to El Al in 1984. El Al (אל על skyward) ( TASE: ELAL is the National airline of Israel. It became the first 767 to complete a nonstop transatlantic journey, and broke the flying distance record for twinjet airliners several times. Although the 767-200ER has no direct replacement, it is expected to be replaced indirectly in Boeing's lineup by the 787-8. WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft. Please see WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft/page content for recommended layout
As of December 2006, total orders for -200/200ER stand at 249 of which 128 are for the -200 (all delivered), and 121 for the -200ER (118 delivered).
767-300
The 767-300 is a lengthened 767 ordered by Japan Airlines in 1983. United Air Lines Inc, trading as United Airlines ( is a major airline of the United States. Air Canada () is Canada 's largest Airline and Flag carrier. The airline founded in 1937 has had its corporate headquarters in Montreal ( or JAL, is an airline of Japan It is one of the largest Airline operators in Asia.

The 767-300ER is the extended-range version of the -300. It first flew in 1986 and received its first commercial orders when American Airlines purchased several in 1987. American Airlines Inc (AA is a US -based airline and the world's Largest airline in total passenger miles transported and passenger fleet size The aircraft entered service with AA in 1988. In 1995, EVA Air used a 767-300ER to inaugurate the first transpacific 767 service. EVA Airways Corporation (E-V-A Air(ways) is a Taiwanese Airline based at Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport near Taipei, Taiwan The -300ER has a minimum takeoff run of around 6,000 ft (1,825 m), and a maximum of 7,900 ft (2,400 m). The 767-300ER can be retrofitted with blended winglets from Aviation Partners Boeing. Wingtip devices are usually intended to improve the efficiency of Fixed-wing aircraft. [17]
The 767-300F is the air freight version of the 767-300ER, first ordered by United Parcel Service in 1993 and delivered in 1995. United Parcel Service Inc ( commonly referred to as UPS, is one of the world's largest Package delivery companies Due to its unique fuselage width of 15 ft 6 in, it is unable to carry ordinary Unit Load Devices, and instead has to use specially designed air freight containers and pallets. A unit load device, or ULD is a Pallet or container used to load luggage freight and mail on Wide-body aircraft and specific Narrow-body aircraft This model has three doors on the maindeck plus two on the lower deck. Of the three doors on top, two are at the front, and one is at the rear right side. The two lower doors comprise of one at the right front and one at the rear left.
In October 2007, All Nippon Airways (ANA) sent one of its Boeing 767-381 (JA8286) to ST Aviation Services Co. , to undergo the world's first 767 PTF (Passenger To Freighter) program. The conversion is scheduled to be completed in June 2008 and thereafter the plane will be designated as a Boeing 767-381 BCF, or "Boeing Converted Freighter". [18]
As of December 2006, total orders for the -300/300ER/300F stand at 688, of which 104 are for the -300 (all delivered), 534 are for the -300ER (514 delivered), and 50 are for the -300F (46 delivered). Total deliveries for the -300 variants are 664. The 767-300 is expected to be replaced by the 787-8 in Boeing's lineup. WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft.

767-400ER
This final extended variant was launched in 1997 on an order for Delta Air Lines and Continental Airlines to replace their aging Lockheed L-1011 and McDonnell Douglas DC-10 fleets. Delta Air Lines Inc ( is a United States Airline based and headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. Continental Airlines Inc ( is a United States certificated air carrier. WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft.

Please see WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft/page content for recommended layout The -400ER was stretched 21. 1 ft from the -300 for a total of 201. 4 ft. It also saw a wingspan increase of 14. 3 feet over the previous two variants and is the only 767 variant to also feature "raked" wingtips for increased fuel efficiency. The -400ER was introduced into service in 2000. This variant is only available as the 767-400ER, as there was no 767-400 variant. However it has less range than the other two ER variants. The 767-400ER's direct Airbus equivalent is the Airbus A330-200. WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft.

Boeing discussed extending the range further but the proposed 767-400ERX was not launched. It was introduced along with the Boeing 747X and was to be powered by Boeing 747X engines (Engine Alliance GP7172 and Rolls Royce plc Trent 600). The Engine Alliance, a 50/50 joint venture between General Electric and Pratt & Whitney, was formed in August 1996 to develop manufacture sell and support a family Rolls-Royce plc ( is a British Aircraft engine maker and the second-largest in the world behind GE Aviation. [19] It would have combined the 767-400ER's size with the range of a 767-300ER. Kenya Airways provisionally ordered this model to supplement their 767 fleet. Kenya Airways is the Flag carrier Airline of Kenya, based in Nairobi. However, in the end, Kenya Airways converted the order to the 777-200ER, eschewing the 767-400ERX altogether.

As of May 2008, 38 767-400ERs had been delivered (16 to Continental Airlines, 21 to Delta Air Lines,[1] and the last was to be the E-10A prototype).
Military
Versions of the 767 serve prominently in a number of military applications. Most military 767s are derived from the 767-200ER.
Airborne Surveillance Testbed
The Airborne Optical Adjunct (AOA) was built from the prototype 767-200. The aircraft was later renamed the Airborne Surveillance Testbed (AST). Modifications to the aircraft included a large "cupola" or hump which ran along the top of the aircraft from above the cockpit to just behind the trailing edge of the wings. Inside the cupola was a suite of infrared seekers that were used to track theater ballistic missile launches in a series of tests. [20] The aircraft remained in storage at the Victorville Airport in California for a number of years before being scrapped in July, 2007. For the military use of this facility prior to 1993 see George Air Force Base Southern California Logistics Airport, also known as Victorville
