N838NN

This article covers the individual Boeing 737-823 airframe bearing U.S. registration N838NN, built in 2010 and carrying manufacturer serial number 31097. The airframe is recorded with corporate ownership under Wilmington Trust Company, Trustee with the owner entry listed as Wilmington Trust Company, Trustee (a corporation headquartered in Wilmington, DE, US). Operator and home base details are Not published. Notable registry actions and formal valuation or condition appraisals are Not published; ownership is identified through the recorded trustee entry rather than an operating airline lease or private individual owner.

The airframe follows the American Airlines standard 737-800 cabin layout as recorded: 16 First, 24 Main Cabin Extra, 132 Main Cabin (172 total), indicating a full two-class configuration with an expanded Main Cabin Extra zone for additional legroom. Specific avionics fit and retrofit status are Not published; typical mission profiles for this airframe class include short- to medium-haul trunk and transcontinental flights well within the listed 3,115 nm range and operating cruise of 444 kts. Maintenance considerations for this specific serial number would follow Boeing and CFM International scheduled maintenance intervals for the 737-800 and CFM56-7B series engines; further airframe- or operator-specific maintenance records are Not published.

The Boeing 737-823 (737-800 Next Generation) is part of the 737 Next Generation family positioned for single-aisle short- to medium-range commercial operations; this airframe's performance figures — notably a 3,115 nm range, 444 kts cruise, and a 41,000 ft ceiling — reflect the standard capability that made the type popular with major network carriers. Competing models in the same market niche typically include the Airbus A320 family and other 737 variants; buyers and lessors weigh factors such as engine type (here the CFM56-7B series), seating density, and recorded owner/trust arrangements like the documented Wilmington Trust Company, Trustee when assessing maintenance, financing, and resale considerations.
