Customize - Commercial Boeing 720b For a larger view, click on thumbnail. The Boeing 720 was introduced in 1959. Having retained the same basic structure as the 707-120, though the 720 was 8 feet 4 inches shorter, which reduced seating to 112 (38 + 74) in a typical two class arrangement. Other changes were made to the wing which included full span leading edge flaps, while a glove between the inner engines and the fuselage increased wing sweep and wing area and decreased the wing's thickness/chord ratio. The changes to the wing made it more aerodynamically efficient, permitting higher cruising speeds and lowered minimum speeds all to add better proformance. The initial 720 first flew on November 23 1959. Certification was awarded on June 30 1960, and enter into service with United Airlines on July 5 1960. The availability of the far more fuel efficient Pratt & Whitney JT3D turbofan resulted in the 720B, which was powered by JT3D1s or 3s. First flight of the 720B was on October 6 1960, with certification awarded on March 3 1961. The 720B also featured a higher maximum zero fuel weight, boosting payload/range, and an increased max takeoff weight due to the heavier turbofan engines. Boeing 720 operators included American Airlines, many of which have been converted into the Boeing 720Bs, United, Continental, Eastern, Northwest Orient and Western, while operators outside the US included Lufthansa and Avianca. As of early 2002 three 720s are believed to be in use as corporate transports, and two are used by Pratt & Whitney as engine testbeds.
