Home›Airliners and Commercial Jet Aircraft›All Airliners and Commercial Jet AircraftBrowse ByAll Airliners and Commercial Jet AircraftReference and ClassificationDevelopingFixed-wing aircraft built to carry fare-paying passengers on scheduled commercial service, from the first purpose-built airliners through the modern wide-body and narrow-body jet, following the standard aviation-industry distinction between commercial transport aircraft and military or general-aviation types. Belongs here: airliners and commercial transport aircraft of any era and any manufacturer, propeller or jet powered. Does not belong here: military aircraft of any role, and light general-aviation aircraft not built for scheduled commercial passenger service, each grouped separately.FactsAll Airliners and Commercial Jet AircraftSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonEra of EmergenceWell-attested1950 1All Airliners and Commercial Jet AircraftFilter Results120 entriesVehicle TypeAllFixed-Wing Aircraft (56)Narrow-Body Jet Airliners (25)Piston and Turboprop Airliners (46)Short-Range Jet Airliners (11)Wide-Body Airliners (19)ManufacturerAllAirbus (14)Aviakor (1)Avro (10)Aérospatiale (1)Beechcraft (3)Bombardier Inc.
