The Boeing 767-200, aviation's first twin-engine wide-body airliner, revolutionized commercial aviation by proving that twin-engine aircraft could efficiently operate long-haul routes previously requiring four engines. First flown on September 26, 1981, it was a low-wing twin-engine wide-body that could accommodate 210 passengers in three-class configuration. Measuring 159 feet in length with a 156-foot wingspan, it achieved a maximum range of 3,900 nautical miles and cruising speed of Mach 0.86. The aircraft was manufactured by Boeing Commercial Airplanes at their Everett, Washington facility.
