Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N779XX, is a Boeing 777-9 built in 2020 with manufacturer serial number 64241. The airframe remains under the ownership of the corporate entity Boeing Company, located in Renton, Washington, US, and is recorded on the US registry. Retained by the manufacturer after production, the airframe has been used for manufacturer flight testing, demonstrations and is maintained to factory standards. Notable registry action includes initial US registration following completion of manufacture and entry into Boeing's fleet for operational evaluation.
The specific cabin fit for this individual 777-9 follows Boeing's widebody long-haul configuration standards for the type, with flexible interior arrangements offered to customers ranging from dense high-capacity layouts to premium long-range configurations. Avionics and systems conform to the 777X standard suite as delivered by Boeing, including modern flightdeck enhancements and systems integration used during manufacturer trials. Typical mission profiles for this airframe are transcontinental and intercontinental test and demonstration flights taking advantage of the 7,285 nm range and high cruise speed; routine operations are staged from Boeing’s facilities in Renton. Maintenance considerations emphasize GE9X engine support and airframe inspections consistent with newly produced 777X-series aircraft, with manufacturer-led logistics and spare provisioning while the airframe remains with Boeing.
The Boeing 777-9 represents the latest 777X generation aimed at the long-range, high-capacity market niche, leveraging large twin-engine efficiency and advanced aerodynamics. With a cruise speed of 488 kts, ceiling of 43,100 ft, and GE9X propulsion, the type competes directly with models such as the Airbus A350-1000 for long-haul intercontinental services. Buyer and charter demand centers on airlines seeking high-capacity, fuel-efficient twinjets; resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe emphasize GE9X engine support, 777X-specific structural inspections, and the aircraft’s status while retained in manufacturer ownership.
