N39297

This airframe, registered as N39297, is a Boeing 737-824 built by Boeing Commercial Airplanes in 2005 and bearing manufacturer serial number 34003. The certificate holder is owned by UMB BANK NA TRUSTEE, a corporate trustee located in Salt Lake City, UT, US, and the aircraft carries a US registration. It is listed in an airline passenger layout of 149 seats and is noted as having a United mainline configuration in registration summary material. The airframe’s market valuation is recorded at $9,500,000, reflecting its mid-life status and operator configuration.

The aircraft is configured in an airline passenger layout with 149 seats, consistent with a United mainline seating plan as reflected in registration summary entries. Typical missions for this airframe, given its range of 3,115 nm and cruise speed of 440 kts, would include domestic mainline routes and short- to medium-haul transcontinental sectors; these roles align with Continental/United network deployment patterns for the 737-800 family. As a trustee-owned certificate, operational control and day-to-day maintenance are presumed to be managed by an operator or lessee rather than the trustee itself, and standard 737-800 maintenance planning applies given the twin CFM56-7B engine fit. No bespoke cabin amenities are documented beyond the standard airline passenger layout.

The Boeing 737-824 belongs to the 737 Next Generation family, positioned as a single-aisle, short- to medium-range workhorse competing with Airbus A320-family variants. With a service ceiling of 41,000 ft, two CFM56-7B engines and a 149-seat mainline layout, the type remains attractive for replacement and secondary-market demand among carriers and lessors. Resale and lease considerations for this 2005-built airframe center on fatigue life, engine shop visit status, and interior refurbishment needs; the stated book value of $9,500,000 provides a market reference for transactions or end-of-lease redelivery.
