N848SY

The airframe bearing tail number N848SY is a Boeing-built narrowbody delivered in 2015, construction serial number 41128, and is owned and operated by the Minneapolis-based carrier Sun Country Airlines. The airframe is a member of the -800 series listed in operator records as Boeing 737-8JP (737-800) and was manufactured by Boeing Commercial Airplanes. Registered in the United States (US), the airframe’s administrative history is straightforward with no public record of ownership transfer away from the registered corporate owner; it is noted in operator documentation as part of Sun Country’s mainline fleet based in Minneapolis, MN. Condition and valuation notes are limited in public records, and routine maintenance has been performed under the carrier’s established heavy-check schedules.

The configuration of N848SY follows the typical Sun Country mainline layout for the Boeing 737-800 family, operated on short- to medium-haul scheduled and charter services from its home base in Minneapolis, MN. Avionics fit conforms to the standard 737-800 specification as delivered by Boeing Commercial Airplanes, with airline-specific updates applied per operator maintenance and upgrade cycles. Typical mission profiles include transcontinental U.S. routes and seasonal leisure charters that exploit the airframe’s range of 3,115 nm and cruise capability of 444 kts. Maintenance considerations are aligned with the CFM56-powered 737-800 fleet commonality, supporting streamlined spares and line-maintenance procedures within Sun Country’s Minneapolis maintenance operation.

The Boeing 737-8JP (737-800) occupies a large single-aisle market niche for airlines seeking medium-capacity, medium-range operations, competing primarily with variants of the Airbus A320 family. Powered in this airframe by the widely used CFM56 series, the model is attractive for operators emphasizing fleet commonality and predictable operating economics. In the secondary market, 737-800s remain in steady demand for carriers and lessors, though valuations and maintenance planning reflect airframe age, cycle count, and engine status; for N848SY, built in 2015, those factors position it toward the stronger half of the used 737-800 cohort.
