N748AM

The airframe bearing tail number N748AM is a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner manufactured by Boeing in 2021, constructor serial number 62148. The aircraft is registered in the US and is held in trust by UMB BANK NA TRUSTEE (a corporate trustee based in Salt Lake City, UT), reflecting financial ownership separate from operational control. Cabin configuration has been reported in an Aeroméxico layout, indicating operation or lease activity with that carrier at some point; registry listings and trustee ownership indicate typical lessor/lessee financing structures rather than direct airline ownership. The airframe carries an estimated market valuation of $292,500,000, consistent with late-production 787-9 examples in active commercial service.

This specific 787-9 is outfitted in a reported Aeroméxico cabin layout of 36 Business / 238 Economy for a total of 274 seats, indicating a mixed long-haul commercial configuration optimized for high-capacity international routes. Avionics are listed as Honeywell / Rockwell-Collins integrated airline avionics with operator-specific fit variations, meaning line-fit or retrofit differences may exist depending on the lessee. Typical mission profiles for this installation include transcontinental and intercontinental services leveraging the Dreamliner’s long-range capability and high-efficiency twin-engine design. Maintenance and operational oversight for the airframe would typically follow manufacturer and ETOPS-compliant programs contracted by the operator while the trustee remains the registered owner.

The Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner occupies the mid-sized long-range widebody niche, offering extended range and fuel efficiency compared with previous-generation widebodies and directly competing with variants of the Airbus A350 and A330neo families in many markets. With a 8,500 nm range and cruise of 490 kts, the type suits premium long-haul networks, high-utilization leasing, and replacement of older twin-aisle aircraft. From a market and resale perspective, late-build 787-9s like serial 62148 typically command strong demand among carriers and lessors, though values and maintenance considerations reflect engine type (GEnx-1B) shop visit schedules and avionics fit variations that affect retrofit costs and remarketing timelines.
