BEIJING, Dec. 7, 2021 —Boeing and Taikoo (Shandong) Aircraft Engineering Co. Ltd. (STAECO) today announced plans to create additional capacity for the market-leading 737-800 Boeing Converted Freighter (BCF) to help meet continued strong market demand.

The 747 was designed to be larger than its predecessors (a task it accomplished very well). The 777, on the other hand, was never meant to be Boeing’s largest aircraft. Instead, it was meant to be a large, long range aircraft that could fill the market that the 747 was too big to fill.
