The Boeing 767 is the first twin-engine wide-body long range aircraft of the U.S. manufacturer Boeing, it lifted off to its maiden flight in 1981. The B767 is - with almost 1,000 aircraft built - economically very successful and is still in production. It shares many components with the concurrently designed Boeing B757, so pilots with appropriate certification can fly both planes without limitation.
To date, three basic versions have been built: the B767-200, -300 and -400 differ only by body lengths and widths. All three models nowadays are offered only in the ER (Extended Range) version. In addition there is a freighter version, the B767-300F.
The B767 has played a leading role in one of the saddest moments in aviation history: On Sept. 11, 2001, terrorists flew two B767 in the twin towers of the World Trade Center.
