Which can be looked up on the United Fleet Website (select the M9 tab given it's a 737-9 MAX) and shows that this maps to the aircraft with rego N37508. Often the last 4 digits will match like that. Sometimes it's just the last 3, sometimes just the last 2 (especially for NxxxUA rego numbers), and occasionally there's no correlation at all!
