N815VL

The airframe bearing tail number N815VL is a Boeing 737-8H4 (737-800, Next-Generation) built in 2012 with manufacturer serial number 39883. Ownership is recorded to the corporate trustee BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE based in Salt Lake City, UT, US, indicating a financial or leasing role in the aircraft’s title rather than direct commercial operation. The airframe is registered in the US and has a documented configuration aligned with low-cost single-class layouts; operator and long-term home base are not published. No public-record extraordinary registry actions or damage histories are published for this airframe in the supplied data.

This specific 737-800 is outfitted in a 143-seat single-class low-cost configuration (operator layout) optimized for short- to medium-haul point-to-point commercial service, emphasizing high-density seating and quick turnarounds. With twin CFM56-7B series turbofans, the aircraft supports typical low-cost carrier mission profiles such as high-frequency domestic and nearby international routes within a roughly 3,115 nm ferry/range capability. Avionics and detailed in-service maintenance status are not published in the supplied data; maintenance considerations generally focus on CFM56 life-limited parts, checks consistent with the Next-Generation 737 fleet, and seating/cabin refurbishment cycles typical of high-utilization single-class operators.

The Boeing 737-800 (NG) family occupies the single-aisle medium-capacity market niche between smaller 737-700/737 MAX 7 and larger 737-900 variants, competing principally with Airbus A320ceo family types in legacy fleets. With a cruise speed of about 444 kts and a service ceiling near 41,000 ft, the 737-800 remains attractive to airlines seeking proven dispatch reliability and broad pilot/maintenance support networks. For investors and lessors—reflected here by corporate ownership—resale and lease prospects depend on airframe cycles, CFM56 engine shop visits, and cabin configuration; dense 143-seat layouts favor low-cost carriers but may reduce appeal to operators seeking premium or mixed-class configurations.
