N724TW

The airframe bearing tail number N724TW is a Boeing 757-231 built by Boeing in 1999 with manufacturer serial number 28488. The aircraft was exported into airline service and is associated with Uzbekistan Airways (operator of the airframe after export), reflecting an ownership and operational link to that carrier based in Uzbekistan while retaining a US registration. Notable registry actions include its listing under a US registration; other valuation and condition details are not published. The airframe’s ownership timeline therefore includes manufacture by Boeing, subsequent export, and operation under the Uzbek national carrier designation.

This specific 757-231 is outfitted in a typical 757 two-class cabin configuration, accommodating approximately 170–180 seats with six-abreast seating in economy and a total listed capacity of 178 seats in its current fit. The aircraft’s operations profile suits medium‑to‑long thin‑route work, with a maximum range of 3,900 nm and a cruise speed near 458 kts, allowing transcontinental and regional international sectors from its operator’s base. Avionics fit is consistent with the Boeing 757 family standard; no unique cabin amenities beyond the two-class layout are published for this airframe. Maintenance considerations follow Pratt & Whitney PW2000‑series engine programs and 757 airframe cyclical inspections typical for late‑1990s production examples.

The Boeing 757-231 sits within the 757 family as a narrow‑body, medium‑range performer valued for higher cruise speed and payload-range capability relative to many narrowbodies of its era. Its competing models historically include stretched or longer‑range narrowbodies and regional widebodies for thin long‑haul markets; buyer and charter demand favors operators needing ETOPS‑style performance without widebody economics. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 1999 airframe center on PW2037 engine shop visit cycles, airframe fatigue tracking, and the niche market for six‑abreast economy two‑class 757s in airline and specialized charter roles.
