N479AZ

This airframe, registered N479AZ, is a Boeing 767-323(ER)(BDSF) built in 1993 with manufacturer's serial number 25450. It is owned by Air Transport International (operated for Amazon Prime Air), a corporation based in Little Rock, AR, US, and carries a US registration. The airframe has been converted to a main-deck freighter under a BDSF program and operates in the cargo sector; notably it is operated for Amazon Prime Air under the current ownership arrangement. Condition and valuation details have not been publicly published for this specific airframe.

The aircraft features a main-deck freighter configuration following a Boeing Converted Freighter (BDSF) modification with lower-deck container positions sized for LD2 containers and no passenger seating, reflecting a full cargo mission profile. Typical operations for this airframe are long-range, high-utilization cargo flights consistent with express logistics and e-commerce distribution, leveraging the 767-300ER’s transcontinental and transoceanic capability. Based in Little Rock under Air Transport International’s management and operated on behalf of Amazon Prime Air, maintenance considerations focus on freighter-specific systems, main-deck cargo handling equipment, and lower-deck container restraint checks during scheduled heavy maintenance checks. Avionics fit is as per the 767-300ER airframe baseline and subsequent operator modifications for freight operations; specific avionics suites or optional mission equipment for this airframe are not published.

The Boeing 767-323(ER)(BDSF) occupies a niche as a midwide, medium-to-long-range freighter offering substantial main-deck volume with efficient twin-engine economics. Competing models in its segment include older 767 freighter variants and narrowbody-to-widebody freighter conversions from other families; demand is driven by express cargo operators and integrators. Maintenance and resale considerations for this airframe center on the CF6-80C2B6 engine fleet support, airframe hours/cycles typical of 1993-build 767s, and the attractiveness of the BDSF main-deck conversion to cargo operators seeking LD2-capable lower holds.
