N735X

This airframe, registered as N735X, is a Boeing-built Boeing 737-5Y0 completed in 1992 with manufacturer's serial number 25191. The airframe is owned by DYNAMIC AVLEASE INC, a corporation based in Bridgewater, VA, US, and has been configured and maintained for specialised operations rather than standard passenger transport. The aircraft is US-registered and its cabin was modified/converted for aerial dispersant role for Marine Spill Response, a notable change that removed the passenger layout and installed mission tanks and equipment. Condition highlights focus on its role-adapted configuration and continued suitability for fixed-wing multi-engine mission work rather than commercial passenger service.

The passenger cabin of this airframe was reconfigured and largely removed to accommodate mission tanks and dispersant delivery equipment for marine spill response, reflecting a purpose-built role rather than a typical passenger seating layout. Avionics fit is not published in the supplied data, but operational profiles center on low-altitude, medium-range sortie patterns suitable for dispersant application over coastal and offshore areas, operating from its US base under Dynamic AvLease’s management. Typical missions emphasize frequent cycle operations, specialized maintenance intervals for the mission systems and airframe corrosion prevention due to maritime exposure, and coordination with maritime authorities during response operations. Crew accommodations and any mission-specific avionics or sensor suites are integrated to support aerial dispersant delivery tasks.

The Boeing 737-500 family member represented by Boeing 737-5Y0 occupies a niche for short-to-medium range twinjet performance with robust operational flexibility; its CFM56-3C1 engines deliver thrust suited to regional operations. Competing models in the same market historically included older variants of the Airbus A320 family and regional jets with similar seat counts, but the 737-500’s airframe and systems have made it attractive for conversion to non-passenger roles. Maintenance and resale considerations for this specific airframe focus on the specialized cabin conversion, age-related airframe factors from a 1992 build, and lifecycle support for legacy CFM56-3 engines.
