N189AN2001 Boeing 757-223

Overview

The airframe bearing tail number N189AN is a Boeing-built narrow-body registered in the United States, a Boeing 757-223 completed in 2001 with manufacturer serial number 32383. The example is recorded as being owned by Wyatt Aerospace LLC, an Arizona-registered limited liability company based in Chandler, AZ, US; this ownership marks a change from its previous operator-oriented life and reflects its transition into a corporate/asset-managed registry. Historically fitted in a two-class layout consistent with American Airlines configurations, the airframe retains operator heritage noted in past cabin and fleet records. Registry details indicate a U.S. registration and typical lifecycle attributes for a 2001-vintage 757, with airframe condition and valuation subject to standard age, cycles, and maintenance status under its current corporate ownership.

Operations & Cabin

The aircraft is fitted in a two-class, 178-seat configuration reflective of its historical American Airlines operator setup, providing a mix of premium and economy accommodation typical of mainline short- to medium-haul deployments. With twin Rolls-Royce RB211-535E4B engines and a 3,900 nm range, its mission profile covers transcontinental and near-international sectors suited to network carrier or charter use. Avionics and specific interior amenities are consistent with production Boeing 757 standards of the era and subsequent operator retrofits; maintenance considerations emphasize RB211 supportability and airframe-cycle management given the 2001 build year. Based in the U.S. registry and owned by a Chandler, AZ LLC, ferry, storage, or conversion actions would follow U.S. regulatory and airworthiness procedures under its current ownership.

Model & Market Context

The Boeing 757-223 occupies a performance niche as a medium-capacity, medium-range narrow-body capable of higher payload-range and favorable cruise speed relative to earlier narrowbodies; the listed cruise of 458 kts and ceiling of 42,000 ft reflect that capability. Competing models historically include high-capacity variants of the Airbus A321 and regionalized widebody turbofans for longer missions, while demand for used 757s is influenced by their unique runway performance and payload-range characteristics. Buyers and charter operators consider engine support for the RB211 series, seat configuration, and remaining structural and systems life when assessing maintenance and resale prospects for a 2001 airframe like N189AN.
