About the Boeing 767-200
Boeing’s planning drawings give the original 767-200 and the 767-200ER the same overall length of 159 feet 2 inches (48.51 meters). The ER suffix identifies an extended-range version, rather than a longer cabin.
Seating capacity
Boeing’s airport planning manual illustrates a 216-seat 767-200ER in two classes. The drawing allocates 18 seats to First Class and 198 to the Economy. Use the operating airline’s seat plan for the count on a particular aircraft.
Cabin layout
The passenger cabin has two aisles. Boeing’s example shows regular rows in Economy with two seats along each side of the fuselage and three between the aisles. The pairs at the sides offer a window and an aisle seat. Row numbers and class boundaries depend on the airline’s layout.
How to recognize a Boeing 767-200
Look for a relatively short widebody fuselage and one engine under each wing. The shorter fuselage is a clue when comparing side views of the -200 and -300. The -200 and -200ER share the same length, so use the registration to tell those versions apart.
Variants and related aircraft
The B762 code covers the 767-200 and 767-200ER. The longer 767-300 series uses B763. The seating example describes a passenger -200ER.
