- Boeing 747-8. Maximum Takeoff Weight (MTOW) 987,000 lbs. The 747 was the world’s first jumbo jet, first flown in 1969 and introduced into service for Pan Am Airways.
- Boeing 777. Maximum Takeoff Weight (MTOW) 775,000 lbs. Early jet airliners tended to use three or four engines. Besides redundancy, this was a regulatory requirement put on the airlines for long over-water operations.
- Boeing C-17 Globemaster. Maximum Takeoff Weight (MTOW) 585,000 lbs. The only military aircraft to make the list, the C-17 Globemaster, is one of the Air Force’s chief cargo planes.
- Boeing 787-10. Maximum Takeoff Weight (MTOW) 560,000 lbs. Boeing’s newest airliner is also the fourth biggest. The 787 is revolutionary in many ways, but its primary mission was to bring the modern building and design techniques into the wide-body airliner market.

Such high capacity demonstrates a world-class feat of engineering - unfortunately, it has not worked out as well as hoped for (most) airlines. The exception is Emirates, which has made a success of the superjumbo with its hub-based model, but most airlines have struggled. The rise in the ability of twin-engine aircraft and...

1. A fuselage that is three meters longer than the A380 2. Maximum capacity: 605 passengers 3. Typical seating: 450 passengers The 747 is, of course, the other very large passenger jet. The latest 747-8 is the largest version offered, coming in at just over three meters longer than the A380. But it has a lower maximum capacity of 605 (again, this is the maximum exit limit, the typical capacity is around 450). It also has a much shorter wingspan than the Superjumbo (68.4 meters compared to 79....

1. Typical capacity: 426 passengers 2. Fuselage length: 76 meters As test aircraft are now flying, it seems appropriate to include Boeing's upcoming 777X. The largest variant, the 777-9, will be the longest passenger aircraft ever launched, at just over 76 meters. And it will offer a typical capacity of up to 426, not far off that of the 747-8, making it the perfect replacement for the 747. Unlike the other passenger aircraft on this list, the 777X is a twin-engine aircraft. And these new GE9...

1. Airbus airlifter 2. Designed to transport aircraft parts between Airbus factories Technically, the Beluga XLis not an aircraft type but a modification of the Airbus A330. As such, some may question whether it should appear on such a list. But however you treat it, it is one of the largest aircraft you will see regularly flying. By volume, it is the largest. It offers a fuselage volume of 2,209 cubic meters. For comparison, Boeing's Dreamlifter comes in behind at 1,840 cubic meters. From th...

- 1 Boeing 737-800. Top place, by a long way, goes to the mid-sized variant in the 737 Next Generation Series, the Boeing 737-800. An incredible 4798 of these have been delivered.
- 2 Boeing 737-700. The 737 Next Generation series has been by far the most popular - although there remains time for the 737 MAX to catch up. It was launched in 1993, mainly in response to the development of the Airbus A320 series.
- 3 Boeing 737 MAX 8. This popularity of the mid-sized option has remained through to the Boeing 737 MAX series today; the 737 MAX 8 has been the most popular member of the latest series.
- 4 Boeing 737-300. Following straight on from the Boeing 737-200, the Boeing 737-300 is the next most popular aircraft. This was part of the 737 Classic Series, which launched in 1984.
The largest model and final model is the stretched B707-320C which is 152 ft 11 in (46.61 m) in length. The additional 8 ft (2.44 m) allows the B707-320C to carry 194 passengers in a single-class configuration and have an exit limit of 219. The smallest B707 is the B720. It’s the only jetliner that has not followed the 7X7 naming scheme.
