#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. In production for over forty years, more than 1,200 of the aircraft have been—and continue to be!—built. Fun fact about the Boeing 767: it is the only Boeing airliner that is made in freighter, passenger and tanker versions. This image was posted on September 26, 2022.
