Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N959BP, is a Boeing 737-700 (737-7BD) built in 2008 with manufacturer serial number 36720. The airframe has been associated with corporate ownership and is listed as owned by Eastern Air Express LLC, a Kansas City, Missouri–based corporation. The aircraft carries a US registration and has been reported at times in a VIP/executive BBJ-style cabin configuration during parts of its operational history. Registration and ownership have been recorded under corporate registry filings in the United States.
The airframe has been reported to feature a VIP / executive BBJ-style cabin layout during portions of its service life, indicating a reconfigured interior distinct from standard 149-seat airliner fittings. Typical mission profiles for this specific aircraft would include long-range executive or corporate transport missions within its 3,445 nm capability and transcontinental U.S. operations from a Kansas City, MO operator base. Avionics fit is not published in the provided data; maintenance considerations for this airframe would follow standard Boeing 737NG airframe and CFM56-7B engine common practices. Unique amenities implied by a BBJ-style layout may include enhanced stowage, meeting or lounge areas, and individualized systems that affect weight and maintenance scheduling.
The Boeing 737-700 (737-7BD) occupies a niche within the Next-Generation 737 family for operators seeking a balance of medium-range performance and capacity compatible with corporate or VIP conversions. With twin CFM56-7B22 engines rated at 22,700 lbf each and a service ceiling of 41,000 ft, the model competes with smaller narrowbodies and converted business jets for high-capacity executive transport. Buyer and charter demand for a 737-700 in BBJ-style configuration is influenced by cabin desirability and lifecycle maintenance costs tied to airframe age (this example built in 2008) and engine supportability.
