N298CM

This airframe, registered as N298CM, is a converted freighter Boeing 767-381(ER) built in 2010 with manufacturer serial number 40565. The airframe is listed as owned by CARGO AIRCRAFT MANAGEMENT INC, a corporation based in Wilmington, Ohio, and carries a US registration. The aircraft was originally produced by The Boeing Company and later modified for cargo service; the main-deck passenger cabin was removed and the airframe was outfitted for palletized freight, reflecting a lifecycle transition from passenger transport to dedicated cargo operations. No additional public registry events or notable valuation changes are published for this specific tail number.

As operated in its current configuration, N298CM features a converted freighter cabin with main-deck cargo pallets and the original passenger seating removed to maximize bulk and palletized payload. Specific avionics fit and interior ancillary equipment for this airframe are Not published; cargo conversions of this family commonly include reinforced floor fittings, a large cargo door, and smoke detection/suppression systems suitable for main-deck freight. Typical mission profiles for this airframe type include medium- to long-range international and domestic freight services within a 6,000 nm mission radius, operated from a corporate base in Wilmington, OH, or by contract operators serving freight hubs. Maintenance considerations follow the freighter conversion standard practices, emphasizing structural inspections around the main-deck modified areas and lifecycle management of the CF6-80C2 engines.

The Boeing 767-381(ER) airframe sits in the midwidebody freighter niche, offering extended-range capability and efficient twin-engine performance for transcontinental and transoceanic cargo routes. Competing models include converted Airbus A330 freighters and older Boeing 767 variants; demand is driven by cargo carriers needing palletized main-deck capacity and range around the 6,000 nm mark. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe center on the condition of the conversion work, remaining structural fatigue life since the 2010 build, and the lifecycle status of the GE CF6-80C2 engines, which require periodic shop visits that factor significantly into asset valuation.
