N245AC

This airframe, registered as N245AC, is a Boeing 737-800 (737-85R / 737-800SF) built in 2007 with manufacturer serial number 35099. The aircraft is recorded as owned by _BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE_ (a corporation based in Salt Lake City, UT, US) and carries US registration. Photographic and operator indications list the airframe in a main-deck cargo configuration as an SF (special freighter) conversion; valuation and registry records show the airframe valued at $19,000,000. No other operator or lease history is published in the supplied data, and there are no additional documented registry actions beyond the stated ownership and US registration.

This airframe is noted as a converted freighter (P2F/SF) with a main-deck cargo configuration, consistent with operator photographs and conversion status indicators. The passenger seating figure of 175 reflects the original passenger certification baseline for the model prior to conversion; in-service cabin layout for this specific airframe is dominated by cargo handling equipment and main-deck payload arrangements rather than passenger amenities. Typical mission profiles for this configuration prioritize medium- to long-range cargo sectors compatible with a 3,060 nm range and cruise speeds near 450 kts, operating from US bases consistent with its US registration and the owner’s Salt Lake City location. Maintenance considerations for this airframe will follow 737NG freighter conversion practices, including structural reinforcement, main-deck cargo door systems, and freighter-specific certification and inspections.

The Boeing 737-800 (NG family) occupies the single-aisle narrowbody medium-haul market niche, offering commonality with 737 Classic and NG variants and broad aftermarket support. Competing models include newer Airbus A320-family and re-engined narrowbodies, but converted 737-800SFs remain attractive for air freight operators due to availability and operating economics. Buyer and leasing demand for P2F conversions is influenced by air-cargo market strength, aircraft age, and conversion status; this airframe’s 2007 build year and freighter conversion position it as a mid-life freighter candidate with typical maintenance and resale considerations for 737NG-series converted freighters.
