Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N27251, is a Boeing 737-8 MAX built in 2021 with manufacturer serial number 43931. The aircraft is owned by United Airlines (corporation, United States) and is registered in the US, operating within United’s network; entered service in 2021 with United Airlines is the primary recorded disposition. There are no alternative owners recorded in the supplied data, and no exceptional registry actions or damage events are noted in the provided information. Valuation and specific condition reports for this individual airframe are not published in the supplied dataset.
The airframe is configured in a two-class cabin labeled C16/Y150, providing approximately 16 premium seats and 150 economy seats for a total of 166 passenger seats. Avionics fit includes a large-format integrated flight deck consistent with carrier-standard 737 MAX avionics, supporting modern airline operations and crew workflows. Typical mission profiles for this aircraft include short- to medium-haul mainline routes consistent with a US-based network carrier, leveraging the type’s 3,550 nm range and fuel-efficient LEAP-1B engines for high-frequency domestic and transcontinental services. Maintenance considerations align with fleet-standard checks for Boeing 737-8 MAX aircraft, with operator base maintenance activities conducted through United Airlines’ established heavy- and line-maintenance programs.
The Boeing 737-8 MAX sits in the single-aisle, medium-range market niche, offering improved fuel efficiency and lower operating costs versus prior-generation 737NG variants. It competes primarily with the Airbus A320neo family for airline orders and medium-range trunk routes. Buyer demand for in-service frames is influenced by fleet commonality, avionics standards, and engine support for the CFM International LEAP-1B; resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe are therefore closely tied to United Airlines’ continuing fleet strategy and the broader 737 MAX aftermarket ecosystem.
