N919CA

This airframe, registered as N919CA, is a Boeing-built freighter completed in 1991 with manufacturer serial number 25302. The airframe is a conversion variant listed as Boeing 747-428 (BCF) and is recorded under the ownership of AC SPE 2 LLC, an Orlando, Florida–based limited liability company. The aircraft carries a United States registration (US) and is noted in available records with an estimated market valuation of $12,000,000, reflecting its freighter-conversion status and service condition at the time of valuation. Ownership is held by AC SPE 2 LLC (Orlando, FL), with registry details tying the operator/owner presence to that location.

The airframe is configured as a freighter under the Boeing Converted Freighter program (BCF), with the main deck dedicated to cargo and flight crew accommodations provided for 2–3 personnel; there is no passenger cabin layout in this configuration. Typical mission profiles for this configuration emphasize long-range cargo operations enabled by the airframe’s 7,260 nm range and four high-thrust GE CF6-80C2B1F engines each rated at 57,160 lbf, supporting sustained cruise operations near 493 kts and high-altitude cruise up to 43,000 ft. As a converted freighter, the aircraft’s interior and structural arrangements are optimized for main-deck cargo loading and related handling systems rather than passenger amenities. The recorded owner location in Orlando, Florida, serves as the primary administrative base reflected in registry entries.

The Boeing 747-400 series freighter derivatives such as the Boeing 747-428 (BCF) occupy a niche for high-capacity, long-range cargo missions, offering significant main-deck volume and high payload capability relative to twin-engine widebodies. Competitors in the heavy freighter market include other widebody conversions and factory freighters from major manufacturers, but the four-engine 747 platform remains valued for specific heavyweight and oversized cargo roles. Market considerations for this specific airframe include its conversion pedigree, remaining structural life, the economics of four-engine operations, and resale or remarketing prospects tied to a listed valuation of $12,000,000. Maintenance and resale evaluations typically emphasize engine cycles on the GE CF6-80C2B1F powerplants and the condition of the main-deck cargo systems unique to the BCF configuration.
