N537CA

This airframe, registered in the United States as N537CA, is a Boeing-built freighter completed in 2004 with manufacturer serial number 33749. The airframe is a Boeing 747-446F (SCD), and current ownership is recorded to AC SPE 10 LLC (an LLC based in Orlando, FL, US). The aircraft carries a minimal cockpit/cargo crew complement of 8 and is configured as a main-deck freighter with both nose and side cargo capability. Registered for US operations under the tail N537CA, the aircraft’s commercial role centers on heavy cargo transport with long-range missions and standard freighter maintenance cycles.

The cabin and flightdeck arrangement for this specific airframe is a dedicated 8-seat cockpit/cargo crew layout supporting main-deck freighter operations; the airframe retains both nose and side cargo loading capability for palletized and bulk freight. Avionics fit is not published beyond standard 747-400 series freighter equipage, but mission profiles commonly include transcontinental and intercontinental cargo sectors consistent with the aircraft’s 4,455 nm range and high cruise speed. Based in the United States under an Orlando, Florida–based owner, typical operations emphasize heavy cargo lift and express freight services; maintenance considerations reflect the 747-400 freighter lineage, including scheduled checks for wing structure, landing gear, and the four CF6 powerplants.

The Boeing 747-446F (SCD) sits within the large freighter segment as a high-capacity, long-range transport with four high-thrust CF6 engines producing 57,160 lbf each, offering robust payload capability and transoceanic reach. Competing models in the heavy freighter niche include converted 747-400 variants, Boeing 777 freighters, and older widebody conversions; buyer demand tends to favor proven large freighters for dedicated cargo operators. Maintenance and resale considerations for this airframe prioritize engine shop visits, structural inspections typical of older large freighters, and the unit’s remaining economic service life given its 2004 build year.
