Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N162WC, is a Boeing 737-7BC (BBJ) built in 1999 with manufacturer serial number 30329. The aircraft is operated for corporate use and is owned by WCA HOLDINGS III LLC, a corporation based in Missoula, MT, US; ownership has been recorded under that corporate registration in U.S. registry records. The airframe is fitted in a VIP / BBJ executive cabin whose exact interior configuration has not been published. Condition and market valuation details for this specific airframe are not published.

The airframe is outfitted in a VIP / BBJ executive layout; the precise cabin plan, fixtures and amenities are not public. Typical mission profiles for this configuration leverage the airframe’s long-range capability to support transcontinental and intercontinental corporate transport within a range of 6,196 nm, operating at cruise speeds near 473 kts and up to a service ceiling of 41,000 ft. As a fixed-wing multi-engine corporate Boeing 737 BBJ, routine maintenance follows heavy airliner schedules adapted for business-jet interior systems, and any avionics or interior upgrades would be carried out in accordance with corporate registry and operator specifications. The aircraft is registered in the US and maintained under U.S. regulatory oversight.

The Boeing 737-7BC (BBJ) occupies the large-cabin VIP/business-jet niche within the single-aisle wide-amenity market, offering airliner levels of range and payload for corporate and head-of-state missions. It competes with large-cabin converted narrowbodies and smaller widebodies in the corporate market by balancing range (6,196 nm) and seating flexibility (up to 149 certificated seats in original specification, though VIP interiors reduce passenger capacity). Buyer demand centers on operators seeking intercontinental non-stop capability with airliner-type systems; resale and maintenance considerations include CFM56-7B engine support and conventional 737-line maintenance programs.
