N294AR

This entry documents airframe N294AR, a Boeing 777-219 (777-200ER) built by The Boeing Company in 2005 with manufacturer's serial number 29404. The airframe is registered in the US and is owned by JET MIDWEST INC, a corporation based in Kansas City, MO, US. Previously operated by Air New Zealand in commercial passenger service, the aircraft’s detailed valuation and current condition status have not been published in public records. Registry history reflects a transition from airline operation to corporate ownership based in the United States.

During its airline career the airframe was recorded operating in mixed‑class configurations under Air New Zealand, and its historical cabin layouts reflect multi‑class passenger service; the current cabin status is not publicly listed. Based at its owner’s address in Kansas City, MO, the platform’s 7,065 nm range and long‑range cruise capability suit transcontinental and intercontinental passenger or potential conversion missions. Typical mission profiles for this specific airframe would leverage extended overwater routing and high‑altitude cruise given a service ceiling of 43,100 ft. Specific avionics fit, interior modifications since transfer, and maintenance records for this tail number are not publicly disclosed.

The Boeing 777-219 (777-200ER) sits in the long‑range, widebody twin‑aisle segment, offering extended‑range capability and high payload for its class; with a cruise speed of 482 kts and a maximum practical ceiling of 43,100 ft, it targets transoceanic airline and charter work. Competing models historically include Airbus A330/A340 variants and newer-generation twinjets such as the Boeing 787 for operators prioritizing fuel efficiency or lower maintenance hours. For buyers and operators considering this 2005 airframe, typical considerations include airframe age, remaining structural and engine life, training and spares logistics, and resale flexibility given its prior mixed‑class configuration and conversion potential.
