N859AM

This airframe, registered as N859AM, is a Boeing-built airliner completed in 2003 with manufacturer serial number 32796. The aircraft is a member of the Next Generation Boeing 737 family and is recorded as owned by BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE, a corporation located in Salt Lake City, UT, US; the current data set lists ownership but does not publish a commercial operator. The airframe carries a US registration and is configured as a freighter following a passenger-to-freighter conversion (P2F) for main-deck cargo carriage. No separate valuation or recent condition survey details are published in the provided data.

This specific airframe is recorded with a freighter cabin conversion (P2F main-deck cargo configuration), indicating the main deck has been adapted for bulk or palletized cargo rather than passenger seating. The listed seating capacity of 175 reflects the original passenger layout prior to conversion and is retained in the registry data as a specification item. Typical mission profiles for a P2F-configured Boeing 737-800 include short- to medium-haul cargo routes within a roughly 3,115 nm operational radius at cruise speeds near 444 kts, with operations conducted up to a service ceiling of 41,000 ft. Avionics fit and specific operator base are not published in the provided dataset; maintenance considerations for this airframe would follow 737NG P2F program requirements and the CFM56-7B engine maintenance regime.

The Boeing 737-8Q8 (737-800) occupies a prominent niche in narrow-body cargo and passenger markets for short- to medium-haul operations, offering balanced payload-range performance and commonality with other 737 Next Generation types. Competitors in the converted freighter segment include ATR and A320 family conversions for similar missions, though the 737-800 P2F offers higher cruise speed and transcontinental capability reflected in its 3,115 nm range. Market considerations for this airframe include remaining structural life since its 2003 build date, CFM56-7B engine support, and the effects of ownership by a corporate trustee on remarketing or commercial operations.
