The Boeing 737-200 is the second and most successful variant of the Original 737 family, developed as a stretched version of the 737-100 to meet airline demand for higher capacity and improved range. Introduced in the late 1960s, it became one of the most iconic narrow-body jets of its generation, operating in nearly every corner of the globe.

Powered by Pratt & Whitney JT8D low-bypass turbofan engines, the 737-200 was renowned for its rugged reliability, hot-and-high performance, and ability to operate from shorter and less prepared runways. Many were even fitted with gravel kits, allowing operations from unpaved strips in remote regions, making the aircraft a true workhorse for both major airlines and regional carriers.

Its cockpit retained the analog instrumentation of its era, offering pilots a hands-on, immersive flying experience. Despite its simplicity compared to later 737 generations, the 737-200 delivered excellent performance, flexibility, and operational economics that cemented its place in aviation history.

Designed for discerning simmers, the Boeing 737-200 Professional brings this legendary classic to life with unmatched realism and attention to detail, ensuring an immersive and authentic flight experience every time.

The 737-200 is a twin-engine, narrow-body airliner produced by the Boeing Company. The aircraft first entered service in April of 1968 for United Airlines, and although it took its last regularly-scheduled passenger flight in 2008, it continues to fly throughout the globe, operated by a number of charter services.

Boeing developed the 737-200 by extending the fuselage of their 737-100 design. The short-range airliner, which has a wing span of 93 feet and an overall length of just more than 100 feet, is powered by two Pratt & Whitney JT8D turbofan engines that together produce a total maximum 32,000 pounds of thrust. It is capable of carrying up to 136 passengers, with a maximum cruising speed of 580 miles per hour, a ceiling of 37,000 feet above sea level, and a range of just over 3,000 miles.

One of the jet's most notable capabilities, however, is its operation out of short and austere airfields. The airliner boasts a landing distance of roughly 5,000 feet and can take off and land on gravel runways with an add-on “gravel kit” that mitigates any foreign object damage of the engines. All told, the 737-200 is a proven, versatile craft ready for a broad spectrum of flying throughout the world.
