N964AM

This airframe, registered as N964AM, is a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner built in 2013 with manufacturer serial number 35307. The airframe is owned by WILMINGTON TRUST CO TRUSTEE (a corporate trustee based in Wilmington, DE, US), reflecting a financial ownership structure typical of leased or trust-held commercial jets. The aircraft carries a United States registration and features certification and registry actions consistent with US civil transport standards. Ownership under a corporate trustee indicates the airframe may have been placed into service by an operator under lease or managed asset arrangements.

The cabin of this specific 787-8 is configured in an approximate two-class high-capacity layout, with industry references indicating around 243–260 seats during its service with Aeroméxico, aligning with the upper end of standard 787-8 high-density fits. Typical mission profiles for the airframe include long-haul intercontinental routes exploiting the 8,200 nm range and high subsonic cruise of 490 kts, operated from major hub bases. Avionics and systems fit follow Boeing’s 787 common specifications, with maintenance considerations dominated by composite airframe care and GEnx engine support requirements. Operator base details are not published for this tail-specific dataset, though registry and ownership indicate US-based administrative control.

The Boeing 787-8 family niche emphasizes fuel-efficient long-range operations for medium-to-high capacity markets; this airframe’s combination of 260 seats and 8,200 nm range targets transoceanic trunk routes. Competing models in the segment include smaller variants of the Airbus A330neo and older Boeing 777 narrow variants, with buyer and charter demand driven by fuel efficiency and commonality within 787 fleet operators. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe focus on composite structure lifecycle, GEnx engine pools, and the implications of trust-corporation ownership for lease transfer and lessor-driven maintenance records.
