Boeing 767-36D, serial number 27684, line number 849, delivered new to Shanghai Airlines on August 23, 2001 as B-2498. Powered by Pratt & Whitney PW4056 engines, the aircraft became part of Shanghai Airlines' widebody fleet during a period of rapid growth in Chinese commercial aviation. B-2498 operated domestic trunk routes and international services from Shanghai, including flights to destinations elsewhere in Asia. The 767 gave Shanghai Airlines useful widebody capacity without requiring the size of a 747. B-2498 remained associated with Shanghai Airlines for more than two decades, making it a particularly long-serving example of the carrier's Boeing fleet.
Designed as a wide-bodied, twin-engined airliner to fill the niche between the narrow-bodied 707 and wide-bodied 747, the 767 was first flown on September 26th, 1981. Developed in tandem with the narrow-bodied 757 twinjet, both aircraft share a common digital cockpit layout and are operated by a two man flight crew. Thanks to a proven reliability track-record, the 767 is approved for extended twin engine operations (ETOPS) making it a popular choice for airlines flying transatlantic routes. With more than 1000 aircraft produced, the 767 is the second most prolific wide-bodied airliner after the 747. © Copyright 2003-2026 The Flying Mule, Inc.
