Boeing
737-100
The Boeing 737-100 is the
standard short-body version of the "classic" 737 family. Lufthansa is the first
foreign airline to launch a new Boeing plane. Lufthansa was the only customer to
purchase the 737-100 from new and only 30 aircraft were ever produced. The short
and stubby appearance of the first 737-100 earned it the nickname among Boeing
engineers as "FLUF", being an acronym for "Fat Little Ugly Fella" (or whatever),
although the industry affectionately called it the "Baby Boeing".
