Jets: 353 types from A to Z

This part of the CatchFlights aircraft directory lists 353 jet types: airliners and freighters, business jets and military jets. Types are grouped the way ICAO's list of aircraft type designators (Doc 8643) describes them — by how they are built and powered, not by what they are used for — so types built for very different jobs share a page. 223 of them were seen by the receiver networks CatchFlights uses in the last 30 days.

Different airframes of each type the receiver networks saw in the 30 days up to 6 October 2026. Aircraft outside receiver range, or without a transponder that broadcasts, are not counted, so the real numbers are higher.
