NARROW BODY REGIONAL AIRCRAFTS--SIZE COMPARISON

Let me take range as it is very opt for defining narrow body/single aisle regional aircrafts..
first guy leaving out this race is bombardier q-series with its range limited to 300-400 nautical miles,all others have a good range around 1700 nautical miles

  • B737 series aircraft length & span ranges from 32mtr to 42 mtr in length (737-400,600,700,800) and 35mtr wingspan.
  • A320 family(318,319,320,321) has length of 31,33,37,42 resply & wngspan of 34mtrs.
  • Crj series(700,900) has length of 32&36 mtrs and span of 23&25 mtrs resply.
  • Fokker 70&100 30&35 mtrs;span 28mtrs.
  • Bae 146 length and span 28&26 mtrs resply.
  • Embraer (170,175,190,195) has length of 30,32,36,38 mtrs resply and span of 26 mtrs for first two and 28 mtrs for the rest..

mhmm..so all of them are nearly same in size..hence the problem of parking,loading and taxing are shared..
