N27292

This entry covers airframe N27292, a Boeing 737-8 MAX built in 2022 with manufacturer serial number 67553. The type is listed as Boeing 737-8 MAX, manufactured by Boeing Commercial Airplanes, and the airframe is owned and operated by United Airlines, Inc. (a corporation based in the United States). The aircraft carries a US registration and was valued at $104,000,000 at the time of the data snapshot. Delivered to and registered by United Airlines in 2022, the airframe follows the carrier’s standard two-class configuration and has no other ownership transfers recorded in the supplied data.

The aircraft operates in a two-class United configuration comprising 16 Business, 54 Economy Comfort, and 96 Economy seats for a total of 166 seats, reflecting the carrier’s medium-density domestic and short- to medium-haul international layout. Avionics are noted as Collins Aerospace / operator-specific MAX flight deck fit (operator fit varies), indicating a MAX-standard flight deck tailored to United’s operational preferences and training programs. Typical mission profiles for this variant and fit include domestic trunk routes and transborder services within the aircraft’s 3,500 nm range and cruise of 453 kts, with operational ceiling up to 41,000 ft. Maintenance and fleet integration follow United’s corporate procedures under its U.S. registry and operator maintenance program.

The Boeing 737-8 MAX is positioned as a mid-market single-aisle performer offering extended range relative to earlier 737 Classic/NG variants while preserving short-field and high-frequency route economics. With two CFM LEAP-1B thrust units rated at 28,690 lbf each, the type competes with contemporary narrowbodies in fuel efficiency and per-seat economics; comparable models in market analyses typically include later-generation Airbus A320neo family members. Demand from mainline carriers for this configuration remains strong for replacement and growth fleets, and resale/valuation considerations for an airframe like N27292 reflect manufacturer-new condition (2022 build) and an assessed value of $104,000,000 under current market assumptions. Maintenance, aftermarket support, and resaleability benefit from commonality within United’s fleet and the broader 737 MAX operator community.
