The Boeing 767-300 is a landplane with 2 jet engines built by Boeing. Air-traffic control and flight-tracking sites identify it by the ICAO type code B763, while airline timetables and booking sites use the IATA code 763. It belongs to the heavy wake-turbulence category, so aircraft landing or taking off behind it must keep extra separation.
767-300 size and dimensions
The 767-300 is 54.94 m (180.2 ft) long, has a wingspan of 47.57 m and stands 15.85 m tall. That makes it the #25 longest of 67 airliners & big jets in our database — longer than 63% of them. Its fuselage is 5.03 m wide, wide enough for a twin-aisle cabin. With 283.3 m² of wing, the wing loading at maximum weight is about 652 kg/m².
767-300 weight and fuel
The maximum take-off weight is 184,612 kg (406,999 lb) and it may land at up to 145,149 kg — 79% of take-off weight, so after a short flight it has to burn off fuel before landing at full weight. Among airliners & big jets it ranks #29 of 69 by weight. Without fuel it may weigh at most 130,634 kg, leaving up to 53,978 kg for fuel at maximum take-off weight. The tanks hold 63,200 litres (16,696 US gallons), about 50.6 tonnes of jet fuel.
767-300 speed and range
It cruises at about 900 km/h (486 knots), faster than 66% of airliners & big jets. Its range of 7,223 km (3,900 nm) is enough to fly non-stop from London to New York (5,570 km) — about 8 hours at cruise speed. On final approach it flies at around 140 knots (259 km/h), ICAO approach category C. Its ceiling is 43,100 ft (13,137 m).
