FAA + MANUFACTURER REFERENCE DATA

Aircraft at a glance.

Dimensions and weights come from FAA data where available, with manufacturer planning documents filling verified gaps. First-flight dates identify the exact model when verified; otherwise, the card labels the aircraft-family program date. Prices are historical real-world list-price references or estimates, not airline transaction quotes.
