Development and design
After the success of the Boeing 737-200 Advanced, Boeing wanted to increase capacity and range, incorporating improvements to upgrade the plane to modern specifications, while also retaining commonality with previous 737 variants. WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft. Please see WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft/page content for recommended layout Development began in 1979, and in 1980 preliminary aircraft specifications were released at the Farnborough Air Show. [3] In March 1981 USAir and Southwest Airlines each ordered 10 aircraft, with an option for 20 more. US Airways Inc is the fifth largest Airline in the United States. Southwest Airlines Co ( is an American low-cost Airline based in Dallas Texas, with its largest focus city at Las Vegas ' McCarran
The new series featured CFM56 turbofan engines, which yielded significant gains in fuel economy and a reduction in noise, but also posed an engineering challenge given the low ground clearance of the 737. WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft. Please see WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft/page content for recommended layout A turbofan is a type of Jet engine, similar to a Turbojet. It essentially consists of a Ducted fan with a smaller diameter turbojet engine Boeing and engine supplier CFMI solved the problem by placing the engine ahead of (rather than below) the wing, and by moving engine accessories to the sides (rather than the bottom) of the engine pod, giving the 737 a distinctive non-circular air intake. CFM International is a joint venture between GE Aviation of the United States, and Snecma of France. [4]
The wing incorporated a number of changes for improved aerodynamics. The wing tip was extended 9 in (23 cm). The leading-edge slots and trailing-edge flaps were adjusted. [4] The flight deck was improved with the optional EFIS (Electronic Flight Instrumentation System), and the passenger cabin incorporated improvements similar to those on the Boeing 757.

737-400
The 737-400 design was launched in 1985 to fill the gap between the 737-300 and the 757-200, and compete with the Airbus A320. WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft. Please see WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft/page content for recommended layout WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft. Please see WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft/page content for recommended layout It stretched the 737-300 another 10 ft (3. 45 m) to carry up to 168 passengers, but was otherwise identical in size to the -300. It included a tail bumper to prevent tailscrapes during take-off (an early issue with the 757), a strengthened wing spar, and additional spoilers. In Aeronautics a spoiler (sometimes called a lift dumper) is a device intended to reduce lift in an aircraft The airplane was also upgraded to a full glass cockpit as standard equipment. A glass cockpit is an Aircraft cockpit that features electronic instrument displays. [7] The prototype rolled out on 26 January 1988, and flew for the first time on 19 February 1988.

Alaska Airlines, ( is an airline based in SeaTac, Washington, United States, near Seattle. [1] The airline has also converted two more into fixed combi aircraft for half passenger and freight. These 737-400 Combi aircraft are now in service.
737-500
The -500 series was offered, due to customer demand, as a modern and direct replacement of the 737-200. It incorporated the improvements of the 737 Classic series; allowing longer routes with fewer passengers to be more economical than with the 737-300. The fuselage length of the -500 is 1 ft 7 in (47 cm) longer than the 737-200, accommodating up to 132 passengers. Both glass and older style mechanical cockpits arrangements were available. [8] Using the CFM56-3 engine also gave a 25% increase in fuel efficiency over the older -200s P&W engines. [8]
