N142SY

This airframe, registered as N142SY, is an Embraer 175LR (ERJ-170-200LR) built in 2015 with manufacturer serial number 17000475. The aircraft is owned by SKYWEST AIRLINES INC, a corporation based in St George, UT, US, and is operated in regional service roles. It is listed in public tracking and operational records as a high-density configuration; the aircraft is noted in databases as operated for United Express in an 88-seat layout. The airframe is maintained to common regional airline standards and has no additional registry actions published beyond its corporate ownership and operator assignment.

This specific Embraer 175LR is configured in a high-density 88-seat single-class cabin for regional shuttle and short-to-medium haul sectors; many other E175s operate in a 76-seat two-class layout, but this airframe is listed publicly in the higher-capacity arrangement. The avionics fit follows the E-Jets typical standard with a Honeywell Primus Epic suite. Typical missions include frequent, short-duration hops on United Express routes under SkyWest operation, emphasizing quick turnarounds and high-utilization schedules. Maintenance considerations follow CF34 engine commonality across fleets and regional heavy-cycle wear patterns; cabin configuration drives specific interior maintenance and part stocking for high-density seats and galley/door items.

The Embraer 175LR occupies the regional jet niche for 70–90 seat markets, balancing extended range capability (2,200 nm) with jet cruise speed (470 kts) and a 41,000 ft ceiling for flexible route planning. Competing models in its class include variants of the Bombardier/CRJ family and smaller narrowbodies in terms of capacity and economics. For operators and buyers, resale and maintenance considerations center on engine CF34 support, avionics commonality with Honeywell Primus Epic-equipped fleets, and the market effect of high-density versus two-class interiors on valuation and route suitability.
