N250HA

The airframe, registered as N250HA, is a Boeing-built airliner converted to a freighter and delivered in 1998 with manufacturer serial number 27660. It is a Boeing 737-400 (converted freighter) currently recorded as owned by HAMDEN AVIATION XXV LLC, a corporation based in Hamden, Connecticut, United States. The airframe carries a US registration and is documented as a fixed-wing multi-engine category aircraft used in main-deck cargo configuration. Notable administrative entries for this specific airframe center on its conversion from passenger to freighter configuration and its continued corporate ownership rather than multiple operator changes.

This airframe operates with a converted freighter main-deck cargo layout, reflecting its role in carrying containerized and bulk freight rather than passenger seating. Typical mission profiles for the type include short- to medium-range domestic and regional cargo flights consistent with a 2,060 nm range and a 492 kts cruise speed, often operated from bases within the continental United States; the corporate owner is located in Hamden, CT. Maintenance considerations specific to this aircraft include the common service and parts support for the CFM56-3B engine series and the airframe’s conversion heritage, which can influence inspection intervals and structural checks around cargo door installations. Avionics fit and detailed interior specification are not published for this registration.

The converted Boeing 737-400 occupies a long-standing niche in the freighter market for short- to medium-haul feeder routes where main-deck capacity and commonality with larger 737 family logistics are valued. Competing models in the feeder freighter space include early-generation 737s and converted narrowbodies such as MD-80/MD-90 freighters or older A320 conversions in some markets, with buyer and charter demand driven by fleet availability and cargo volume requirements. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect the CFM56-3B engine series’ mature aftermarket, potential needs tied to conversion modifications, and lifecycle economics for a 1998-built airframe.
