When regular Boeing customer United Airlines bought the more technologically advanced Airbus A320 with fly-by-wire controls, this prompted Boeing to update the slower, shorter-range 737 Classic variants into the more efficient, longer New Generation variants. The first 737NG, a 737-700, was rolled out on December 8, 1996, and first flew on February 9, 1997, it was later delivered to Southwest Airlines Background The 737NG is superseded by the fourth generation 737 MAX, introduced in 2017.
Boeing stopped assembling commercial 737NGs in 2019 and made the final deliveries in January 2020. The most common variant was the 737-800, with 4,991 commercial, 191 military, and 23 corporate jets ordered, of which 4,989, 152, and 21, respectively, had been delivered. The 737NG's primary competition is with the Airbus A320 family.Īs of September 2021, a total of 7,124 737NG aircraft had been ordered, of which 7,080 had been delivered, with remaining orders for the -700W, -800, and -800A variants. It has a longer range and larger variants than its predecessor: The series includes four models, the −600/-700/-800/-900, seating between 108 and 215 passengers. It is equipped with CFM International CFM56-7 series engines and a glass cockpit and features upgraded and redesigned interior configurations.
