N8578Q

The airframe bearing tail number N8578Q is a Boeing-built narrow-body delivered in 2018 and identified by manufacturer serial number 64349. This specific airframe is a member of the 737 Next Generation family, listed as a Boeing 737-8H4 (737-800, NG) and carries a United States registration. Ownership is recorded to the corporate trustee BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE, located in Salt Lake City, UT, US, and the airframe has appeared on U.S. registry records under that corporate ownership. Maintenance and condition summaries are not published in the supplied data; the recorded ownership by a financial trustee suggests use as a leased or managed asset within airline or secondary market operations.

The cabin for N8578Q is configured in a single-class, high-density layout with 175 economy seats (high-density Southwest configuration), indicating a focus on short- to medium-haul, high-utilization operations typical of low-cost or dense-schedule carriers. Avionics fit and specific onboard systems are not published in the supplied data; operational use inferred from seating and range points to frequent cycle short-to-medium domestic missions within the U.S. registry. As a corporate-owned airframe by a trustee entity, maintenance and dispatching are likely managed under leasing or third-party operator agreements rather than direct fleet operation by the owner.

The Boeing 737-8H4 (737-800, NG) occupies the legacy single-aisle market niche combining commonality with earlier 737 Classics and Next Generation types and offers operators efficient short- to medium-range performance. With a typical seating capacity of 175 in high-density layouts and a 3,045 nm range, it competes with similar narrowbodies in secondary and replacement markets rather than newer re-engined types. Buyer and asset managers consider engine type (CFM56-7B), cycle life, and cabin-density configurations when assessing residual value and maintenance planning for NG 737s in trustee or leasing portfolios.
