N882NN

This airframe, registration N882NN, is a Boeing-built 737-823 completed in 2011 with manufacturer serial number 33221. The aircraft is recorded as owned by WILMINGTON TRUST CO TRUSTEE, a corporate trustee entity based in Wilmington, DE, US, and is operated in a mainline configuration by American Airlines. Registered in the US, the airplane’s history is characterized by corporate trust ownership, reflecting typical financial structuring for line-fit narrowbody jets; trustee ownership is the notable registry arrangement for this airframe. Condition and valuation highlights are consistent with a 2011 vintage, in-service, mainline 737 Next Generation airframe operated in a two-class 162-seat layout under regular airline maintenance programs.

The aircraft is outfitted in a mainline two-class 162-seat cabin as operated by American Airlines, reflecting a common short- to medium-haul fleet density that supports high-frequency domestic and transcontinental rotations. The typical mission profile for this sub-type includes short-haul and medium-haul trunk routes where quick turnarounds and higher dispatch reliability matter; its cruise speed of 460 kts and range of 3,115 nm allow efficient scheduling across most domestic networks and some transborder missions. Avionics and systems are consistent with Boeing 737 Next Generation standards for the model year, and maintenance is managed under the operator’s standard maintenance program, with corporate trust ownership often indicating lease-structured upkeep and lifecycle financial planning.

The Boeing 737-823 is a member of the 737 Next Generation family positioned for high-utilization airline operations, balancing seat capacity (here 162) with operating economics. It competes in the market segment with earlier 737 variants and narrowbody types from competing manufacturers for short- to medium-range routes. Buyer and charter demand for a 2011 737-800 series airframe tends to focus on operators seeking proven reliability and commonality with existing fleets; resale and maintenance considerations center on remaining cycle life, engine shop visits for the CFM56-7B engines, and continued access to OEM and aftermarket support.
