Aircraft Series Number
One thing that has always puzzled me are the numbers indicating the series type of a certain aircraft.
For example a 737-800 can be a
737-8AS, 737-804, 737-8Q8 ..... and so on!
I am guessing that since they are often the same for a fleet within the same airline, the numbers might have something to do with either 1) the seating layout or 2) the engine types.
Apart from that I have no idea.
I'd be very grateful for the answer.
Thanks
