N1709A

The airframe bearing tail number N1709A is a Boeing-built widebody delivered in 1988 with manufacturer serial number 24086. It is a Boeing 767-375(ER)(BDSF) airframe configured as a main-deck freighter following a Bedek/Boeing Converted Freighter (BDSF) modification and is owned by ANDROMEDA LEASING I LLC. The registered owner is the corporation ANDROMEDA LEASING I LLC, located in Purchase, NY, US, and the aircraft is registered in the US. Condition and valuation specifics are not published for this individual airframe; its age and conversion status are the primary determiners of market value.

The aircraft operates as a main-deck freighter following its BDSF conversion, featuring a side cargo door and no passenger cabin. Typical mission profiles for this specific airframe derive from its extended-range capability and freighter configuration, serving medium- to long-haul cargo routes where transcontinental or transoceanic payload-range performance is required. The owner’s listed location in Purchase, New York, implies operations and leasing activity centered from US registrant bases, and the freighter conversion entails specific maintenance and structural inspection regimes associated with large side-cargo door installations and main-deck cargo-handling systems.

The Boeing 767-375(ER)(BDSF) occupies the medium widebody freighter niche, offering extended-range capability combined with main-deck cargo capacity after conversion. Powered by two GE CF6-80C2 series turbofans, the type balances fuel efficiency and thrust for long-sector freight missions within its range and ceiling capabilities. Demand in the leasing and cargo markets often favors converted passenger-to-freighter 767s for their cost-effective payload-range tradeoffs, while maintenance, aging-airframe considerations, and the specifics of BDSF structural modifications are key factors affecting resale and long-term operator economics.
