About

The Boeing 737-100 was the original and smallest variant of the 737 family. Introduced in 1968, it was designed as a short-range, twin-engine jet airliner for regional routes. Only 30 aircraft were built, making it the rarest 737 variant. Despite its limited production, it laid the foundation for what would become the world's best-selling commercial jetliner family.
