N114HQ

This entry covers airframe N114HQ, an Embraer 175LR (ERJ-170-200LR) manufactured by Embraer S.A. and completed in 2007 with serial number 17000179. The airframe is owned by REPUBLIC AIRWAYS INC, a corporate operator based in Indianapolis, IN, US, and is registered in the US. Its ownership history is singular in the supplied data, showing corporate custody and operation from its Indianapolis base; no separate registry actions or published condition valuations are provided for this specific airframe.

The airframe is certificated for approximately 80 seats, with a typical cabin arrangement offering 2-2 seating; operator dual-class layouts for the E175 commonly present a 76-seat configuration, and this specific airframe is noted as certificated for around 80 seats. Avionics are fitted with the integrated flight deck Honeywell Primus Epic, supporting modern cockpit systems and airline operational requirements. Operated by REPUBLIC AIRWAYS INC out of Indianapolis, missions for this airframe align with regional jet profiles—short- to medium-haul scheduled passenger service—where its range of 2,200 nm and cruise speed of 480 kts enable sector flexibility while retaining regional airport performance and turnaround characteristics. Maintenance considerations reflect the twin-engine, high-utilization role typical of regional carriers, with the CF34-8E5 engine family defining the propulsion and associated support needs.

The Embraer 175LR (ERJ-170-200LR) sits in the regional jet segment as a longer-range derivative within its family, offering trans-regional capability up to 2,200 nm with a service ceiling of 41,000 ft and an operator-configurable seating density around 76–80 seats. Its performance niche emphasizes a balance of capacity and range for airlines seeking flexibility on thin-to-thin-to-thick routes while retaining efficiencies of a two-engine regional platform. Market considerations for this airframe type include demand from regional and mainline operators for right-sized aircraft, parts and support tied to the CF34-8E5 engine fleet, and resale or lease positioning influenced by cabin configuration and avionics such as the Honeywell Primus Epic fit.
