United States headquartered aircraft manufacturer Boeing delivered 528 commercial jets in 2023, 157 of which were during the last quarter. Among its five main commercial airplane programs, the B737 leads the delivery with a total of 396. See below the summary of aircraft deliveries in numbers:

• B737 – 396
• B787 – 73
• B767 – 32
• B777 – 26
• B747 – 1

AFM Team Note – using a conservative crew to aircraft ratio of 6 this would translate into over 6,300 pilots being required if the assumption was that all the aircraft are for fleet growth (not the case due to fleet replacement cases).
