Why it branches from the family
The F28 Mk 4000 is treated as the representative branch because it captures the higher-capacity branch most often associated with the family’s later passenger years.
Variant pages stay intentionally narrower than the family page so differences in cabin, engines, mission, and market role remain clear without duplicating the full program history.
