About Boeing 737-800
Boeing 737-800 Aircraft - photo wallpapers: The Boeing 737 is the world's most popular medium range, narrow body airliner. With over 6,000 ordered and over 5,000 delivered, it is the most ordered and produced commercial passenger jet of all time and has been continuously manufactured by Boeing since 1967. The 737 is now so widely used that at any given time, there are over 1,250 airborne worldwide. On average, one takes off or lands every five seconds. The 737 was born out of Boeing's need to introduce a competitor in the short-range, small capacity jetliner market which had been pioneered by the Sud Aviation Caravelle, BAC 1-11 and the Douglas DC-9. While Boeing had originally planned for a 60 to 85 seat airplane, consultation with launch customer Lufthansa resulted in a change to 100 seats. Boeing was far behind its competitors when the 737 was launched, as rival aircraft were already into flight certification. To speed up the development time, Boeing reused 60 percent of the structure and systems of the existing 727, most notably the fuselage cross section, which permitted six-abreast seating compared to the rival 1-11 and DC-9's five-abreast layout. The same basic fuselage cross section was also used on the 707, and later on the 757. Significantly, the widened cross-section and short fuselage complicated the aerodynamics of the planned aft-mounted engines. As a result, engineers mounted the engines on pylons directly to the underside of the wings; which kept the aircraft low to the ground for easy ramp operations. This would become an issue later on in the 737s life, when high-bypass turbofans were fitted to the design.
Description: Engines on the 737 Classic series (300,400,500) and Next-Generation series (600, 700, 800, 900) appear not to have circular inlets, as most aircraft do. Engineers needed additional space to locate equipment on the more powerful engines, but because the 737 sits lower to the ground than most airplanes, the enlarged engine would s...
