Post by Stratofreighter »

"pax" as in commercial passenger service. So excluding military variants... :|

Boeing’s best-selling airplane over the last 20 years, the 737 Next Generation has just completed its delivery cycle.

The manufacturer dispatched on Thursday (27) of its plant of Renton the last commercial model of the series, a 737-800.

The jet was acquired by Singapore’s BOC Aviation leasing group, which leased it to Japan’s Skymark Airlines.
Boeing also developed military versions of the 737 NG:
the 737 AEW & C early warning and surveillance model (based on the 737-700ER) and the Poseidon P-8 (based on the 737-800ER),
designed for maritime patrol missions and
is still in production.

Boeing has handed over the last Boeing 737 Next-Generation aircraft.
The pictured Boeing 737-800 JA73AC (msn 63410) was handed over to Skymark Airlines.
It departed from Boeing Field yesterday (June 27) bound for Japan via a rest stop in Anchorage.

Huh? I thought KLM’s last 737-800 will be the last one handed over?

Yes, but KLM's aircraft has an earlier line number, so technically it's an "older" aircraft. But it will indeed be the last pax 737 NG to be handed over if I'm correct.
