ICAO aircraft type codes, explained
Every flight tracker labels aircraft with a short code — A20N, B38M, E75L, AT76. These are ICAO type designators: the two-to-four-character identifiers from ICAO Doc 8643 that air traffic control uses on flight plans. Type one into the box, or browse by manufacturer. Codes with a full guide link through to specs, seat maps, history and live tracking.
How to read a type code
The first letter is usually the manufacturer (A Airbus, B Boeing, E Embraer, C Cessna), followed by a compressed model number. The last character often marks a variant: A20N is the A320neo, B38M the 737 MAX 8, B77W the 777-300ER, B78X the 787-10, E75L the long-wing E175, AT76 the ATR 72-600. Older families drop the dash: B738 is the 737-800, CRJ9 the CRJ900, DH8D the Dash 8-400.
Airlines and booking sites use a different three-character system, the IATA equipment code, which is why the same plane can appear as 7M8 on your ticket and B38M on a tracker. The table below the list maps the common ones.

IATA vs ICAO: the codes that confuse everyone

Frequently asked
What does E75L mean on a flight tracker?
E75L is the ICAO type designator for the Embraer E175 with the longer wing fitted from 2013 onward (the enhanced version most North American regional airlines fly). The earlier short-wing E175 is E75S. Airlines and booking sites usually show the IATA equipment code instead: E7W for the long-wing version, E75 for the short-wing.
Is A20N the same as an A320?
Not quite. A20N is the Airbus A320neo (new engine option), while A320 is the original A320ceo. The two share a fuselage and cabin but the neo has larger, more efficient engines and wingtip sharklets as standard. The same pattern applies to A21N (A321neo) versus A321, and A19N versus A319.
What is the difference between ICAO and IATA aircraft codes?
ICAO type designators (ICAO Doc 8643) are two to four characters, used on flight plans and by air traffic control, and they are what ADS-B flight trackers display — B38M, A20N, E75L. IATA equipment codes are three characters, used by airlines and booking systems — 7M8, 32N, E7W. They describe the same aircraft; they are just different systems.
What aircraft is a 7M8?
7M8 is the IATA code for the Boeing 737 MAX 8; its ICAO designator is B38M. Likewise 7M9 is the 737 MAX 9 (B39M) and 7M7 the MAX 7 (B37M).
Why do some codes have a letter at the end, like B77W or B78X?
The fourth character distinguishes variants that ICAO treats as different enough to matter for air traffic purposes. B77W is the 777-300ER, B77L the 777-200LR, B78X the 787-10 (X standing in for 10). Not every variant gets its own code — the 737-800 and 737-900 are B738 and B739, but the 737-900ER shares B739.
