This database contains data of nearly 230 airplanes. Each airplane is described by 31 parameters such as: name, IATA code and category (general, commuter, regional, short-medium, long range), geometry, mass, max speed, typical cruise mach number, typical range, typical approach speed, take-off field length, landing field length, number of engine, type of engine, typical engine model, bypass ratio, max thrust or max power.

This database relies on various sources such as the manufacturer website, flight manual (if available), books, Eurocontrol aircraft performances.

This data are NOT intended to be used in an operational context. They were gathered in order to provide orders of magnitude and find trends between various parameters in a preliminary aircraft design context.
