N258SN

This entry covers a single Boeing 747-47UF airframe bearing tail number N258SN built in 1999 with manufacturer serial number 29258. The airframe is a freighter-configured passenger-to-cargo variant of its type and is owned by B29258 LLC, an LLC based in Estero, FL, US. The aircraft carries a United States registration and is identified in records as a fixed-wing multi-engine platform configured for main-deck freighter operations. Registered in the United States, the airframe’s documented condition and valuation highlights are limited to its configuration and equipment as listed.

The airframe features a main-deck freighter configuration with nose and main-deck cargo capability, reflecting conversion or freighter build standards for large widebody freighters of its family. Cabin seating capacity is listed as 660, which in practice for this airframe indicates structural arrangements and emergency equipment ratings relevant to its certified layout or legacy passenger specification prior to freighter emphasis. Typical mission profiles for this configuration emphasize long-range heavy cargo routes consistent with the listed 4,445 nm range and a cruise speed of 493 kts, operated from an owner base in Estero, Florida. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe include support for the four GE CF6-80 series turbofan engines and freighter-specific systems tied to nose and main-deck cargo handling.

The Boeing 747-47UF occupies the heavy freighter segment within the 747 family, offering large main-deck cargo volume and extended-range capability, here demonstrated by a 45,000 ft service ceiling and transoceanic range. Competing models in the heavy freighter market include other late-model 747 variants and large freighter conversions of rival widebodies; buyer and charter demand for this airframe type typically centers on operators requiring high single-entity payload and nose-loading capability. Resale and maintenance considerations hinge on airframe hours, engine cycles on the GE CF6-80 series, and the economics of operating a high-capacity freighter registered in the United States.
