N546JN

The airframe, bearing U.S. registration N546JN, is a freight-configured McDonnell Douglas MD-11F built in 1995 with manufacturer Serial Number 48546 and originally produced by BOEING CO. The aircraft is recorded as owned by ATARES FUNDING LLC, a corporate owner located on Fisher Island, Florida, and is registered in the US; this ownership is the principal recorded custodian of the airframe in contemporary registry listings. No public record of other operators or lease transitions is provided in the supplied data. The aircraft is assessed with an approximate market valuation of $17,000,000, reflecting its freighter configuration and age-related market position.

The airframe operates as a main-deck freighter with a palletized main deck layout and typical lower-deck LD3 positions for the MD-11F family, consistent with its designation as a cargo transport; cabin seating is limited to 7 seats, reflecting a flight and technical crew plus minimal additional seating. Avionics and specific equipment fit are not detailed in the supplied data, but MD-11F examples typically support long-range freight missions consistent with a 3,950 nm capability and cruise at about 473 kts. Based from the owner's listed location on Fisher Island, Florida, the aircraft would be positioned within U.S. registry operations; maintenance considerations for this airframe type commonly include tri-jet systems upkeep (three GE CF6-80C2D1F engines) and structural checks aligned to its 1995 build year.

The McDonnell Douglas MD-11F occupies a niche as a long-range, widebody freighter with tri-jet performance advantages for certain payload and range profiles, here enabling transcontinental and transoceanic sectors within its 3,950 nm range. Competing types in the market include twin-engine widebody freighters offering lower fuel burn, which affects buyer and charter demand for older tri-jets. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 1995 build include engine lifecycle management for three GE CF6-80C2D1F units and airframe corrosion and fatigue inspections appropriate to its age, factors which influence the stated valuation of $17,000,000.
