N561AA

The airframe bearing registration N561AA is a McDonnell Douglas-built airliner of type McDonnell Douglas MD-82, construction year 1991 and manufacturer's serial number 53091. The aircraft is recorded as owned by American Airlines, Inc., a corporation based in Fort Worth, TX, US; no additional prior ownership transfers or re-registrations are published for this specific tail. Operator and home-base activities are consistent with the owner's primary operations in Fort Worth, though specific route assignments and deployment history for this airframe are not published. Condition assessments and market valuation figures for this individual airframe are not published.

Cabin layout details, seating configuration and specific avionics fit for N561AA are not published; typical MD-82 interiors were configured for single-aisle short- to medium-haul transport, but exact seating and cabin amenities for this airframe remain unreported. In operational terms, the aircraft's published performance — cruise of 480 kts and range of 2,050 nm — supports domestic and regional mainline trunk routes consistent with the owner's network based in Fort Worth, TX, US. Routine maintenance considerations for this specific airframe would follow the MD-80 series fleet maintenance program as operated by the owner; any unique maintenance actions or refurbishments on N561AA are not published. Mission profiles for the type typically emphasize high-utilization short- to medium-haul schedules rather than long-range operations.

The McDonnell Douglas MD-82 belongs to the MD-80 family, positioned as a fixed-wing multi-engine medium-range airliner optimized for dense domestic routes with moderate runway performance and straightforward systems. With twin Pratt & Whitney JT8D-217C engines producing 20,000 lbf each, the type competes historically with other late-20th-century single-aisle designs for replacement and secondary-market demand. Buyer and charter interest in individual MD-80 airframes is influenced by age (this example being a 1991 build) and maintenance status; resale and part-out considerations commonly reflect airframe hours, cycles, and regulatory phase-outs, none of which are published for N561AA.
