N585AA

This airframe, registered as N585AA, is a McDonnell Douglas MD-82 built in 1991 with manufacturer serial number 53248. The aircraft was produced by McDonnell Douglas and is owned by American Airlines, a corporation based in Fort Worth, TX, US. Its operator and home base alignment reflect the owner's primary operating center in Fort Worth, and the airframe's U.S. registration indicates continued use within American registry oversight. There are no additional published notes on registry transfers, significant valuation events, or major condition reports beyond its build and ownership metadata.

The cabin configuration for this airframe follows a typical MD-82 single-aisle, five-abreast coach arrangement, reflecting operator-specific density choices rather than a unique bespoke interior for this serial. Avionics and systems fit are consistent with MD-82 production standards of the early 1990s; no separate avionics modification record is provided for this specific tail. Typical mission profiles for this type and owner pairing include short- to medium-haul domestic routes within the continental United States, operated from the owner's Fort Worth operational hub. Maintenance considerations for this individual aircraft align with the legacy JT8D engine program and MD-80-series airframe support, with routine overhauls and checks dictated by operator schedules and regulatory requirements.

The MD-82 sits within the McDonnell Douglas MD-80 family as a short- to medium-range, single-aisle twinjet designed for high-frequency, narrow-body operations. With a cruise speed of 438 kts and a range of 2,052 nm, it competes historically with earlier-generation narrow-bodies in similar payload-distance roles. Buyer and charter demand for older MD-80-series airframes tends toward operators with established maintenance capabilities for JT8D engines and those valuing acquisition economy over modern fuel efficiency. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe are governed by its 1991 vintage, serial 53248, and the ongoing supportability of Pratt & Whitney JT8D-217C components.
