Go to http://www.faa.gov/, select the 'Licences and Certificates' tab, then under 'Aircraft' there is "Type Certificate Data Sheets (TCDS)" which links you to here
You can then look up a specific TCDS by make/model etc.
For example, this is the B767-200 TCDS.
Thanks a lot for the link! Very useful.

I was looking for VD (VDF) / MD (MDF) figures for the B737-300, -400 and -800 and for the B747 myself; however the TCDS documents refer to "the appropriate FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual", which I can't find online. Would you happen to know an online source for those figures too?
