N789LS

This airframe, registered as N789LS, is a Boeing-built narrowbody first delivered in 1988 with manufacturer serial number 24269. The airframe is listed as owned by GRYPHON TRADING 18 LLC, an LLC based in Fort Lauderdale, FL, US, a change denoted in the registry as a commercial ownership entry. The aircraft carries US registration and is maintained in a standard passenger configuration; its age and configuration inform typical valuation and condition assessments in the secondary market for late-model 737 Classics. Notable registry actions include the recorded ownership by GRYPHON TRADING 18 LLC as the current titled owner.

The aircraft is outfitted in a conventional 149-seat airline configuration consistent with the standard 737-300 layout, providing single-aisle seating across a mixed coach arrangement. Avionics fit and specific interior refurbishments are Not published for this airframe; operational use is therefore typically aligned with short- to medium-haul airline missions given its 2,255 nm range and cruise speed of 430 kts. Based on ownership and registry information, the operational base and administrative home for the type are centered in Fort Lauderdale, FL, US, under the control of GRYPHON TRADING 18 LLC. Maintenance considerations for this airframe focus on aging airframe inspections, life-limited components and CFM56-3B2 engine maintenance cycles consistent with late-1980s production Boeing 737 Classics.

The Boeing 737-35B belongs to the 737 Classic family, occupying the short- to medium-range single-aisle performance niche with proven reliability. Competitors in its era and mission profile include earlier series Airbus A320-family variants and other 150-seat narrowbodies; demand in the pre-owned market tends to favor well-maintained examples with complete maintenance tracking. Resale and operational economics are influenced by the aircraft's 1988 manufacture date, the older CFM56-3 series engines, and the 149-seat layout, which together drive considerations for retrofit costs, stage-length suitability and parts availability.
