#Onthisday in 1981, the Boeing 767 departed on its first flight. It was introduced into service by United Airlines a year later, on September 8, 1982. The airliner has a capacity of between two-hundred and three-hundred passengers and the range for most transoceanic routes, it also featured a “glass cockpit,” or all-digital LCD flight instrument display panels.
