N80EV

This airframe, registered as N80EV, is a Boeing-built 737-2H4 (737-200 Advanced) manufactured in 1982 with manufacturer serial number 22675. The airframe is held by ARC AIRCRAFT HOLDINGS 7 INC, a corporate owner based in Dover, DE, US, and is registered in the US. The aircraft is currently listed as being operated privately and has likely been reconfigured from its original airline layout for non-airline use; this change in operational status is the most notable registry-related action on public record. Valuation/condition highlights show an estimated market value of $6,500,000, reflecting its age, configuration, and the typical market for older 737-200 series airframes.

Originally delivered with a single-class 124-seat (3+3) layout, the cabin of N80EV is now listed as operated privately and is likely reconfigured for non-airline use, though specific modified layouts or VIP fittings are not published. Typical mission profiles for a privately operated 737-200 Advanced of this specification would include medium-range transport within its 2,600 nm capability at cruise speeds near 420 kts, operating from the owner’s base in Dover, DE or other US locations. Maintenance considerations for this airframe include the legacy JT8D powerplants and type-specific structural and systems work inherent to older-generation 737-200 variants, and any unique amenities would depend on owner-directed interior modifications.

The Boeing 737-200 Advanced occupies a niche as an early-generation, low-cost short- to medium-range narrowbody, with performance figures such as a 37,000 ft ceiling and cruise around 420 kts. Competing models in legacy markets are typically older variants of narrowbody jets and turbofan conversions; demand for such airframes is often from corporate or special-mission operators rather than mainstream airlines. Resale and maintenance considerations center on airframe age, availability of JT8D-9 support, and the costs associated with reconfiguration or restoration for continued private operation.
