N150SY

This entry covers the specific airframe bearing tail number N150SY, serial number 17000499, an Embraer ERJ-170-200LR (E175LR) manufactured by Embraer S.A. The airframe is listed as owned by SkyWest Airlines, Inc. and carries a United-style 76-seat cabin fit commonly used on United Express operations. The aircraft is registered in the US, and its technical configuration—two CF34 turbofans and a regional 76-seat layout—places it squarely in short- to medium-haul regional service; registration and ownership are recorded as US-based SkyWest operation.

This individual Embraer ERJ-170-200LR is fitted in a United-style 76-seat layout typically deployed on United Express services, with the standard configuration noted as 12 First / 16 Economy Plus / 48 Economy. The two General Electric CF34-8E engines provide the thrust required for regional network schedules, enabling efficient operations on short- and medium-range routes up to 2,200 nm and cruise speeds around 447 kts. As an aircraft registered and owned by SkyWest Airlines, Inc., its mission profile is aligned with high-frequency regional rotations, with cabin and maintenance configurations tailored to the operator’s United Express contract standards. Maintenance considerations reflect the CF34-8E engine type and regional airframe utilization patterns common to SkyWest’s fleet.

The Embraer ERJ-170/175 family, represented here by the Embraer ERJ-170-200LR (E175LR), occupies the regional jet niche for 70–90 seat operations, balancing range and capacity for thin trunk and spoke routes. With a service ceiling of 41,000 ft and a 76-seat United-style fit, the type competes with similarly sized regional jets in airline networks where frequency and passenger comfort (multiple cabin classes) are prioritized. Buyer and operator considerations for this airframe typically focus on CF34 engine support, fleet commonality within regional carriers, and lifecycle resale influenced by seat configuration and contract carrier deployment.
