N523AS

This airframe, registered as N523AS, is a Boeing 737-890 (a member of the 737-800 Next Generation family) built in 2009 with manufacturer serial number 35194. The airframe is recorded as being owned by WILMINGTON TRUST CO TRUSTEE (a corporation based in Wilmington, DE, US), which appears in current title records as trustee ownership rather than an airline operating lease company. Operator details and an extended operational history are not published in the supplied data; the registration is held in the US. Condition and valuation highlights are limited to the manufacture year and configuration; the aircraft retains a passenger accommodation consistent with an in-service narrowbody configured for short- to medium-haul operations.

The aircraft is laid out in a Typical Alaska 737-800 cabin configuration: 12 First / 30 Premium / 117 Economy (159 total), indicating a three-class service plan optimized for high-density single-aisle domestic routes. Avionics fit is that of a standard 737-800 NG production airframe of its vintage; specific retrofit or avionics upgrades are not published in the provided data. Typical mission profiles for this configuration include short- to medium-range trunk and regional sectors within a 3,060 nm capability and cruise speeds around 477 knots. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe reflect its 2009 build year and NG-series systems; ownership by a trustee corporation may indicate lease-backed financial arrangements or title holding separate from day-to-day operations.

The Boeing 737-800 (737-890 variant) occupies the single-aisle, short- to medium-range market niche, balancing payload and range for domestic carriers and high-frequency regional networks. Competing models in its segment include the Airbus A320ceo family and newer re-engined single-aisles for replacement considerations. Demand for 737-800s in secondary markets remains driven by operators seeking proven reliability, commonality with fleet types, and moderate acquisition cost; resale and maintenance considerations for this 2009 airframe will hinge on total cycles, maintenance status, and any supplemental avionics or cabin refurbishments not listed in the supplied data.
