N1373A

This airframe, registered as N1373A, is a Boeing-built widebody first delivered in 1994 with manufacturer's serial number 27205. The airframe is a converted freighter in the Boeing 767-300 family configured as Boeing 767-31K(ER)(BDSF) and has been operated by and owned by Atlas Air, Inc. (operated in Amazon Prime Air/Atlas service), based in the United States. Its U.S. registration (US) and conversion to a full main-deck freighter under the BDSF program are notable points in its lifecycle, reflecting a transition from passenger-capable lineage to dedicated cargo operations. The aircraft’s role in dedicated freight service and continued operation by a major ACMI/air-cargo specialist indicate sustained operational utilization rather than storage or retirement.

The cabin has been permanently modified under the BDSF program to a main-deck full freighter configuration with no passenger seating, optimized for palletized and containerized cargo rather than cabin amenities. Avionics fit is as required for extended-range freighter operations and the aircraft typically conducts long-range medium-capacity cargo missions consistent with its 6,105 nm range and 460 kts cruise, supporting both domestic and international scheduled or ACMI services. Based with Atlas Air, Inc. in the United States, maintenance considerations focus on freighter structural checks, main-deck load system inspections and CF6-series engine support given the twin CF6-80C2 powerplants.

The Boeing 767-31K(ER)(BDSF) occupies a niche as a medium-widebody freighter offering transcontinental and intercontinental range with efficient twin-engine fuel burn relative to older quadjets. Competing models in the medium widebody freighter market include narrow and widebody conversions that target similar payload-range missions; demand is strong from integrators and ACMI operators for converted 767s due to capacity and airport compatibility. Maintenance and resale considerations for this airframe center on CF6 engine support, airframe fatigue life since a 1994 build date, and the commercial desirability of BDSF-converted 767s for cargo operators.
