Structure of Aircraft

1. Types of Aircraft
Wide body and Narrow body

2. Wide body and Narrow body Aircrafts
•Narrow-body aircraft(also known as a single
aisle aircraft) is anairlinerwith
afuselageaircraft cabinwidth typically of 3 to
4 meters (10 to 13ft)
•Airline seatarranged 2 to 6 abreast along a
single aisle.

3. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•Narrow-body aircraft with a range not
allowingtransatlanticortranscontinental
flightsare commonly known asregional
airliners

4. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•Wide body aircraftis a larger airliner and is
usually configured with multipletravel classes
with a fuselage diameter of 5 to 7 meters (16
to 20ft) and twin aisles.
•Passengers are usually seated 7 to 10 abreast.

5. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•Typical wide-body aircraft can accommodate
between 200 and 600 passengers,
•While the largest narrow-body aircraft
(theBoeing 757-300 ) carries a maximum of
289.

6. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•Narrow bodied planes have a single aisle
down the center of the cabin.
•Wide bodies have two aisles.
Wide body planes hold more people and are
typically used for longer, international routes.

7. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•An example of a narrow body plane is a
Boeing 737. An example of a wide body is a
Boeing 767/777/747.

8. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•The first wide body aircraft, Boeing 747, was
introduced in February 1969.
•Its capacity is 450 for a normal passenger
plane but can handle nearly 500 if configured
all coach seats for charter service.

9. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•It has been nicknamed, “Jumbo Jet”.
•Other wide body aircraft include the 777
Boeing, MD-11 McDonnell Douglas, A300
Airbus and the 767 Boeing jet.

10. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•Types of narrow body aircraft include the 727
Stretch Boeing, 737 Boeing, MD 80 (S80)
McDonnell Douglas and the F100 Fokker.

11. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•In the typical wide-body economy cabin,
passengersare seated seven to ten
abreast,allowing a total capacity of 200 to 850
passengers.

12. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•The largest wide-body aircraft are over 6m
(20ft) wide,and can accommodate up to
eleven passengers abreast in high-density
configurations.

13. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•By comparison, a typicalnarrow body airliner
has a diameter of 3 to 4m (10 to 13ft), with a
single aisle,and seats between two and six
people abreast.

14. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•Wide-body aircraft were originally designed
for a combination of efficiency, passenger
comfort, and to increase the amount of cargo
space ,also used for the transport of
commercialfreight & cargo

15. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•Wide-body aircraft are also used for the
transport of commercialfreight & cargo and
other special uses, described further below.

16. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•The biggest wide-body aircraft are known
asjumbo jetsdue to their very large size;
examples include
•Boeing 747("jumbo jet"),
•Airbus A380("superjumbo jet")
•Boeing 777-9X ("mini jumbo jet").

17. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•Although widebody aircraft have a larger
frontal area (and thus greaterform drag) than
a narrow-body aircraft of similar capacity, they
have several advantages over their narrow-
body counterparts:

18. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•Larger volume of space for passengers, giving
a more open feeling to the space
•Lower ratio of surface area to volume, and
thus lower drag on a per-passenger/cargo
basis.

19. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•The only exception to this would be with very
long narrow-body aircraft, such as theBoeing
757

20. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•Twin aisles that accelerate loading, unloading,
and evacuation compared to a single aisle
(wide body airliners typically have between
3.5 and 5 seats per aisle, compared to 5-6 on
most narrow-body aircraft)

21. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•Reduced overall aircraft length for a given
passenger or cargo capacity, improving ground
maneuverability and reducing the risk of tail
strikes
•Greater under-floor freight capacity

22. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•The interiors of aircraft, known as the aircraft
cabin, have been undergoing evolution since
the first passenger aircraft.
•Today, between one and fourclasses of travel
are available on wide-body aircraft.

23. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•Bar and lounge areas which were once
installed on wide-body aircraft have mostly
disappeared, but a few have returned inFirst
class or business class on theAirbus A340 -
600 ,Boeing 777-300ER & on theAirbus A380

24. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•Emirates Airline has installed showers for
first-class passengers on the A380; twenty-five
minutes are allotted for use of the room, and
the shower operates for a maximum of five
minutes.

25. Wide body and Narrow body
Aircrafts
•In some of the largest single-deck wide body
aircraft, such as theBoeing 777 , the extra
space above the cabin is utilized for crew rest
areas and galley storage.

narrow-body short-medium range airliner.
•It is one of the more modern narrow body
designs.
