The first model of the Boeing 767 family, the 767-200 was launched in 1978 and entered service with United Airlines in 1982. This model is used mainly for continental routes such as New York City to Los Angeles. The 767-200 typically is outfitted with 181 seats in a 3-class layout or 224 in a 2-class layout. All -200 models have a capacity limit of 255 due to exit-door limitations. An additional exit door can be specified when the aircraft is ordered to allow for up to 290 seats in a high-capacity, all-coach (30 in pitch 2+4+2) layout. Its main competition was the Airbus A300 and A310. Some 767-200 models were later converted to the -200ER specification; and since March 2005 Israel Aircraft Industries holds a supplemental type certificate for conversion of 767-200s to 767-200SF (Special Freighter) specification.
A total of 128 767-200s and 121 -200ERs have been delivered with no unfilled orders remaining. A total of 168 767-200/-200ER aircraft were in airline service as of August 2008. Although the 767-200ER has no direct replacement, it is expected to be replaced indirectly in Boeing's lineup by the 787-8. 767-200s flown by American Airlines burn an average of 15,982 gallons of jet fuel flying round-trip between New York City and Los Angeles; the 787 is expected to be 20% more fuel efficient per passenger.
