Hi,
I try to find out what kind of aircraft is behind the aicraft column of the route/timetables.
For exsample of my aircraft:
Days  Flight #  Dep  Arr   Aircraft    
**** ****  1615  2015  B734  

First i thought its a Boeing 734, but this is not exist. So how can i find out, what kind of aircraft is behind this number?

Cause for some strategy reason I would like to know what my competitor is flying to a destination i planed to flyby. So i could maybe fly the same destination with a better aircraft. ;D

Boeing 737-400.

I guess i understand now.

So an 772 is then a 777-200 and so on.

:laugh:

Thank you !

The only confusing one is the 73N which is the 737-700 (that's the usa designation as it is 737 in here)

I think that's the IATA code for it not the ICAO code. Because I've also seen is as 73G. You see loads of interesting designations on a.net and the likes and I think they are used on the airlines schedules to denote config and the like.

You're correct... It is 73g

I wouldn't be surprised if there was a 73N as well maybe to differentiate the ER?
