The Boeing 717-200 is a twin-engine, single-aisle jet airliner designed for short to medium-haul routes. Originally developed as the MD-95 by McDonnell Douglas before Boeing's acquisition, the 717 was specifically designed to replace older DC-9 and MD-80 aircraft in airline fleets. With its efficient Rolls-Royce BR715 engines and modern avionics, the 717 offered improved fuel economy and reduced noise levels. The real aircraft measures 37.80 meters in length with a wingspan of 28.47 meters and a height of 8.86 meters, seating typically between 106-134 passengers. Olympic Aviation operated these aircraft on domestic Greek routes and short international services, providing reliable regional connectivity.
