The Boeing 737-400 is a member of the Classic series, widely used in the 1990s. Many have been converted to cargo/freighter roles as seen here.

Fleet Rarity

B737-400s are increasingly rare; less than 200 remain in active service globally (mostly as freighters).

Record Flights

Notably used for short/medium-haul cargo and postal services across Europe.
