N9628W

This airframe, registered as N9628W, is a McDonnell Douglas MD-83 (DC-9-83) manufactured by McDonnell Douglas and completed in 1998 with manufacturer serial number 53598. The airframe is held in the name of JETRAN LLC (an LLC based in Horseshoe Bay, TX, US) and carries a United States civil registration. The fleet assignment for this specific aircraft reflects a high-density single-class configuration and its recorded ownership by JETRAN LLC is the principal documented custodial history; no other ownership transfers or notable registry actions are published in the supplied data. Condition and valuation details are not published beyond the factory configuration and seating layout provided.

The aircraft is fitted with a high-density 172-seat airline passenger layout in a single-class cabin, reflecting an interior optimized for maximum seat count rather than luxury or multi-class service. This configuration supports point-to-point, high-density short- to medium-range operations within the aircraft's published mission range of 2,498 nm, typically flown at a cruise speed of 472 kts and up to a service ceiling of 37,000 ft. Operated from a US base under the registration N9628W, the MD-83 in this layout would be suited to high-demand trunk routes, dense charter missions or other operations where seating capacity is prioritized. Specific avionics fit, in-service modifications, unique amenities, or maintenance status for this serial number are not published in the provided data.

The McDonnell Douglas MD-83 (DC-9-83) is a member of the MD-80 family designed for short- to medium-haul, high-capacity airline operations; this airframe's specifications—two Pratt & Whitney JT8D-219 engines, a 172-seat high-density cabin, and a 2,498 nm range—place it firmly in that performance niche. Competing models historically include other narrow-body, high-density airliners tailored to similar mission profiles. Buyer and operator considerations for this specific airframe center on mission suitability of a single-class 172-seat layout, engine type and thrust rating, and the aircraft’s manufacturing vintage (1998) and serial identity (53598), which affect maintenance scheduling and marketability.
