Boeing introduced the -200 in 1971, with uprated engines for a heavier maximum takeoff weight (MTOW) of 833,000 pounds (378 t) from the initial 735,000 pounds (333 t), increasing the maximum range from 4,620 to 6,560 nautical miles [nmi] (8,560 to 12,150 km; 5,320 to 7,550 mi).

It is powered by a more efficient, smaller version of the General Electric GEnx turbofan engine from the 787 Dreamliner. As a result, its maximum takeoff weight (MTOW) increases to 975,000 pounds (442 t), making the 747-8 the heaviest Boeing airliner.

The Boeing 737 MAX is the fourth generation of the Boeing 737, a narrow-body airliner manufactured by Boeing Commercial Airplanes. It succeeds the Boeing 737 Next Generation (NG) and competes with the Airbus A320neo family.

Aug 18, 2024 · As Boeing playfully points out, that's about 10,767 gold bars. The aircraft manufacturer claims that its final line of 747s has a maximum takeoff weight of 987,000 pounds, which converts to a...
