N963TW

This airframe, registered as N963TW, is a McDonnell Douglas MD-83 (DC-9-83) built in 1999 with manufacturer serial number 53613. The aircraft is owned by JETRAN LLC, an LLC based in Horseshoe Bay, TX, and carries a US registration. Public records for notable registry actions, valuation or detailed condition history are Not published for this specific airframe.

The interior of N963TW is configured as a single-class cabin accommodating 172 seats, designed for high-density passenger carriage. Specific avionics fit and refurbishments for this airframe are Not published, so standard MD-83 cockpit and systems assumptions should not be attributed without inspection records. Operated from the owner’s base in Horseshoe Bay, TX, the aircraft’s mission profile is consistent with short- to medium-range commercial or charter services enabled by its 2,500 nm range and 430 kt cruise speed. Maintenance considerations for this airframe include support for the legacy Pratt & Whitney JT8D-219 turbofan type, which informs parts provisioning and shop visit planning for the operator.

The McDonnell Douglas MD-83 (DC-9-83) represented a stretched, higher-capacity variant within its family, here evidenced by a 172-seat single-class layout and a service ceiling of 37,000 ft. With a listed cruise of 430 kts and a 2,500 nm range, this airframe occupies a performance niche aimed at short- to medium-haul sectors requiring dense seating. Market considerations for airframes of this description typically center on demand for high-capacity narrowbody aircraft, the availability and cost of legacy-engine support for the JT8D-219, and residual value driven by airframe age; specific resale or market valuation details for N963TW are Not published.
