N1217A 1992 Boeing 767-375

Overview

This article covers the individual airframe bearing registration N1217A, a Boeing 767-375(ER)(BCF) built in 1992 with manufacturer serial number 25865. The airframe is owned by Andromeda Leasing I LLC, a corporate lessor based in Purchase, NY, US and is registered in the US. The airframe was produced by Boeing and later modified to a Boeing Converted Freighter (BCF) configuration; this conversion and corporate ownership mark the most notable lifecycle events recorded for this specific registration. Condition and valuation details are not published; operational records emphasize its role as a main-deck freighter under corporate leasing arrangements.

Operations & Cabin

The airframe is configured as a converted freighter (BCF) with a main-deck freighter layout; the passenger cabin has been removed and window plugs have been installed to accommodate cargo operations. As a corporate-leased BCF, it typically conducts medium- to long-haul cargo missions that leverage its extended-range capability and main-deck payload volume; specific route records are not published. Avionics fit and crew accommodation details are not published, though the BCF conversion focuses maintenance on freighter systems such as cargo handling, reinforced floor structures, and main-deck door integrity. Based in the United States under corporate ownership in Purchase, NY, the aircraft is expected to be cycled through lessee operators and third-party MRO providers in line with freighter market practices for the 767-300ER derivative.

Model & Market Context

The Boeing 767-375(ER)(BCF) airframe sits within the 767 family niche as a medium-widebody freighter offering a notable balance of range and payload for transcontinental and transoceanic routes. It competes with converted freighter variants of similarly sized twinjets and newer medium widebodies for demand from cargo carriers and lessors. Buyer and lessee interest is driven by reliability of the CF6-80C2B6F engines and the aircraft’s 5,990 nm range, while maintenance and resale considerations emphasize airframe age (built 1992), conversion history, and remaining fatigue life on components specific to freighter operations.
