N8732S

This airframe, registered N8732S, is a Boeing-built Boeing 737-8 MAX completed in 2018 with manufacturer serial number 42551. The aircraft is held in trust by UMB BANK NA TRUSTEE, a Corporation based in Salt Lake City, UT, US, and its ownership record reflects institutional custody rather than direct airline asset ownership. Operator and day-to-day base of operations are not published; the trustee ownership suggests the airframe has been used as a leased asset or financial collateral rather than a permanently airline-operated fleet ship. Registry actions and public valuation/condition reports are not published.

The cabin is configured in a single-class, high-density layout optimized for economy service with approximately 175 seats, reflecting a typical short- to medium-haul airline seating density for the 737 MAX family. Flight deck and systems are fitted with Collins Aerospace avionics consistent with airline flight deck standards for the 737 MAX series. With a design cruise speed of 453 knots and a range of 3,500 nautical miles, this airframe is suited to dense domestic and near-international trunk routes; specific route assignments or operator schedules for this serial are not published. Maintenance considerations align with MAX airframe and LEAP-1B engine programmes, where trust-held aircraft commonly undergo maintenance per lessor or trustee-directed programs rather than a single airline maintenance base.

The Boeing 737-8 MAX occupies the narrowbody, single-aisle market niche for high-capacity, short- to medium-range operations, competing against re-engined narrowbodies in similar classes. Its performance metrics — notably the 41,000 ft ceiling, LEAP-1B thrust rating, and 3,500 nm range — support high-utilization airline schedules and dense seating configurations. Demand from buyers and charter operators tends to favor airframes with institutional ownership and clear maintenance records; resale and lease prospects for this trustee-held aircraft depend on published maintenance documentation and lessor arrangements, which for this airframe are not published.
