Do you know the weight of the plane that people often fly?

With the continuous development and popularization of civil aviation, it seems that it has become a very common thing for people to fly. Moreover, the safety factor of aircraft is very high, and there are many types and models, which can meet the needs of different routes and different people. Some people may fly frequently, giving the impression that they are comfortable and fast, but they may know less about the plane itself, such as its weight and passenger capacity. Although few people know about these, I suggest you have a look.

Mainly talk about domestic flights and see what planes are mainly used in domestic flights. Judging from the current situation, domestic flights generally use Boeing and Airbus aircraft, but the domestic C9 19 has not been officially put into service, so I won't say much. Boeing and Airbus aircraft are the main types of domestic airlines, among which Boeing 737, Boeing 747, Airbus A320, Airbus A330 and Airbus A380 are the most common. For business or short trips, we usually take Boeing 737 and Airbus A320. If it is a long flight or even going abroad, there are more Boeing 747 and Airbus A380. So what are the weight and passenger capacity of these models? I finally understand after reading it.

First, let's talk about Boeing 737. In fact, there are many models of Boeing 737. The members of Boeing 737 are always divided into four generations, and the third generation aircraft are mainly used in China, such as Boeing 737-700, 737-800 and 737-900. Let's take 737-700 as an example. The weight of this plane is 37.6 tons. The number of passengers in the cabin is about 126- 149, which is a short-haul plane. At the same time, Boeing 737 series aircraft is also the best-selling civil aircraft in the world. At present, the total order has exceeded 1 10,000, and Boeing has made a fortune.

Secondly, let's go back to Airbus A320 and A380. These two models have formed a good cooperative relationship. The Airbus A320 weighs 42.6 tons, the maximum takeoff weight is 78 tons, and the passenger capacity in the cabin is about 150 people. The output of Airbus A320 is second only to Boeing 737, and Airbus is also a direct competitor of Boeing. It can be said that from a global perspective, the vast majority of civil aviation aircraft in the world are basically owned by these two companies, which shows how powerful they are. Let's take a look at Airbus A380, which is the largest civil aircraft in the world. The aircraft itself has an empty weight of 277 tons and a maximum takeoff weight of 575 tons. This cabin can hold more than 500 people. It is a veritable big plane, with excellent ride comfort inside and excellent passenger experience. The first class even has its own private space.

Finally, the headmaster thinks that with the increasing number of modern people flying, it is actually necessary to know some basic knowledge about airplanes, such as weight and passenger capacity. Knowing this can also enrich your knowledge and insights. Although few people know this knowledge, I recommend you to have a look.
