N779CK

The airframe bearing tail number N779CK is a Boeing-built widebody delivered in 2005 with manufacturer serial number 32785. The aircraft is recorded as owned by BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE, a corporate owner based in Salt Lake City, UT, and is registered in the US. The airframe was originally a Boeing 777-300ER and has been converted to a 777-300ERSF, reflecting a notable lifecycle change from passenger configuration to a freighter role. Valuation records list the airframe at approximately $80,000,000, and the aircraft is categorized as fixed-wing multi-engine with a freighter cabin configuration and no passenger cabin.

This specific airframe operates as a converted freighter; the cabin was reconfigured such that there is no passenger cabin, consistent with its 777-300ERSF conversion designation. Typical mission profiles for this converted long‑range platform would emphasize intercontinental cargo operations taking advantage of a 7,370 nm range and high cruise speed near 495 kts, although specific route assignments and an operator beyond the registered corporate owner are not published. Avionics fit and line maintenance specifics for this serial are not published, but maintenance considerations for this airframe will reflect the increased structural and systems inspections associated with passenger-to-freighter conversions and the high-thrust GE90-115B engine maintenance regime.

The Boeing 777-300ER family occupies the long-range, high-capacity widebody niche, and the converted 777-300ERSF derivatives target heavy intercontinental cargo demand where range and payload are critical. Competing freighter options include other converted widebodies and factory-built freighters from similar size classes; buyer and charter demand for this platform tends to favor operators needing substantial payload and range. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect its conversion status, high thrust GE90-115B engines, and its reported valuation of $80,000,000.
