Boeing 767 Family

The Boeing 767 is a twin-engine widebody transport family developed in parallel with the smaller 757. Its efficient aerodynamics, advanced materials, two-pilot digital flight deck, and transoceanic range helped make long overwater routes practical for twin-engine airliners. The platform has served in passenger and freighter fleets and also underpins aerial-refueling, airborne-early-warning, and other government derivatives.

      Boeing's 767 airport-planning data lists two CF6-80C2-B4 engines for applicable 767-300/300ER configurations; the canonical propulsion node remains the existing CF6 family because a separate CF6-80C2-B4 variant node is not present.
    Name
    767-300 CF6-80C2-B4 option
    Notes
    This records the exact CF6-80C2-B4 option documented for the 767-300/300ER portion of the broad 767 family. JT9D, PW4000, RB211, and other 767 subseries/options remain unmodeled here.
