Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N721MN is a McDonnell Douglas MD-87 (DC-9-87) built in 1989, constructor serial number 49767. The aircraft is registered in the US and is owned by BD MD-87 LLC, an LLC based in Longwood, FL, US, which serves as the documented operator/home base for this airframe. Registry and valuation details beyond the registration and ownership record are Not published for this specific airframe. Condition highlights and recent valuation specifics are Not published.

This airframe has been completed with a VIP executive cabin conversion and is described as a corporate/VIP layout rather than the original high-density transport interior. Operator and base affiliation is tied to BD MD-87 LLC in Longwood, Florida, US. Typical operations for this configuration are corporate and VIP transport missions consistent with the aircraft’s published range of 2,390 nm and cruise speed of 438 kts. Specific avionics fit and equipment lists for this individual aircraft are Not published.

The airframe is a member of the McDonnell Douglas MD-87 family produced by McDonnell Douglas, a fixed-wing multi-engine type derived from the DC-9 series. With a seating standard of 172 and a ceiling of 37,000 ft, this platform occupies the short- to medium-range narrow-body niche within its family lineage. The corporate/VIP conversion represented on this serial reduces standard passenger density in favor of executive accommodations, a factor that materially affects mission profile and resale characteristics for this specific airframe. Maintenance and parts considerations for this airframe are tied to its installed powerplants, the Pratt & Whitney JT8D-219 engines.
