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.

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.
