I believe the first aircraft MADE to carry more than 100 passengers was Boeing's model 388 Stratocruiser in the early 1950's. There is also the possibility it may have been a Douglas DC-6B or the early model 102 Bristol Britannia. -I earlier highlighted MADE, as I also have unproven stories of DC-4 s carrying more than 100 during WW2.
- Whichever aircraft, it happened no later than the early '50 s. (not the 90's as many younger contributors appear to think )

The Wright Brothers airplanes were made of wood and cloth. Modern airplanes have metal fuselages (which means that its a closed object, unlike older planes).

Most new airplanes have either turboprop, turbofan, or turbojet engines, which are much more fuel efficient, less noisy, and more reliable, whereas older airplanes used piston airplanes. They also have more sophisticated technology, such as fly by wire, turbulence avoidance, etc.
