The Boeing 737 was designed as a smaller alternative to larger aircraft, catering to shorter routes with fewer passengers. Its first flight occurred in 1967, with Lufthansa operating the initial 737-100 model. The subsequent 737-200 gained traction after a major order from United Airlines, becoming the standard model. Although early sales were slow, these initial versions laid the groundwork for a highly successful family of airliners, leading to the current 737 MAX still in production today.
