N37298

This article covers airframe N37298, a Boeing-built narrow-body registered in the United States, completed in 2005 with manufacturer serial number 34004. The airframe is a Boeing 737-824 and is owned and operated by United Airlines, Inc., a corporate registrant based in Chicago, IL, US. The aircraft carries US registration and has been integrated into United's mainline fleet for domestic and short-to-medium international operations; no separate notable registry actions or ownership transfers have been published. Condition and valuation details have not been published for this specific airframe.

The cabin of N37298 is configured in a two-class layout with C16 Business / Y150 Economy (two-class, 166 total), reflecting a typical United Airlines short- to medium-haul mainline interior allocation that balances premium and high-density economy seating. With a cruise speed of 456 kts and a service ceiling of 41,000 ft, the airframe is typically employed on domestic trunk routes and transcontinental missions within its maximum ferry and stage lengths; the stated maximum range is 3,115 nm. The twin CFM56-7B26 powerplants, each rated at 26,300 lbf, align with standard fleet maintenance and engine shop visit cycles common to the 737NG family, and operator-level heavy maintenance is managed through United's mainline engineering base in Chicago.

As a member of the Boeing 737 Next Generation family, the Boeing 737-824 occupies a mid-capacity short- to medium-range market niche, offering commonality with other 737NG variants in pilot training and line maintenance. Its performance—cruise speed of 456 kts, ceiling 41,000 ft, and range 3,115 nm—positions it against competing narrow-bodies in legacy fleets rather than newer re-engined types. For buyers and secondary-market operators, considerations include airframe age (built 2005), remaining hull life, and ongoing CFM56-7B engine support and parts availability tied to the large global fleet.
