734 is slightly underpowered Iā€™d say

You think that everything thatā€™s slightly longer than the original variant of its series is underpowered.

No
For example the 777-300ER is not underpowered by any means

Actually, neither one should be able to.

Yeah it said that the 737-800 needs 2300m to takeoff

Well they operate at SBSPā€™s 1900m and SBRJā€™s 1300m regularlyā€¦

They say A320 needs about 2000m of runway for takeoff

Again, SBSP and SBRJ proved Wikipedia wrong

Well the -800 can but Iā€™m pretty sure the MAX 8 canā€™t (or at least not yet)

If the 737-800 can fly to Hawaii
Or the 757 to the East Coast, then I think those planes can operate to many airports and Wikipedia needs some info updated :joy:

@PlanesAndGames and @TheGlobalAviator, the figures on Wikipedia are recommended takeoff distances, they can take off in shorter distances with higher thrust settings

Itā€™s just like how 777s operate out of Kahului
