Boeing 737
    Boeing developed the 737 to complement the 707 and 737.  It was smaller and designed to provide economical short range air travel.  It had the same upper deck as the other two planes, so the same cargo pallets could be used for all three jets. The 737-200s adopted the 727’s cargo convertible features, which allowed the interior to be quickly changed from passenger to cargo use.
      It became known as the  “square” airplane because it was as long as it was wide. New technology made the flight engineer redundant; so the 737’s had only a two person flight crew.   Nineteen 737-200s were modified as T-43 navigator trainers and served with the Air Force.  As of 1993, Boeing had sold over 3,100 of the sleek jets, making it the best selling airliner in history.
