The Boeing 737 and the Airbus A320 families have long been considered the workhorses of the global aviation sector. Airbus now holds 68 per cent share in the narrow-body aircraft market, off the back of Boeing’s 737 MAX crisis. During the peak production of the Boeing 737 NG and the Airbus ceo family, the market was split 50% / 50% between all aircraft variants of each family of aircraft.
Over 6765 Boeing B737NG family of aircraft have been produced as of 2019. The family consists of the B737-600, B737-700, B737- 800 and B737-900/ER in a passenger configuration. Both the B737-700 and B737- 800 are in large demand as freighters and in military applications.
