Versatile Aux Fuel System Will Give 737s Longer Legs
The cost of a seven-tank configuration holding 2,700 gallons of fuel will be about $3 million. This will add about 2,400 nm of range to the airplane.
Karl Lang, Long Range president and CEO, has developed an auxiliary fuel system for Boeing 737s. The “quick change” line-replaceable tank system offers considerable flexibility for operators wanting to increase the range of their legacy 737s to that of a BBJ.
