N158AS

This airframe, bearing tail number N158AS, is an Airbus A320-214 built in 2001 with manufacturer serial number 1578. The airframe is owned by AERSALE INC, a corporation based in Coral Gables, FL, US, and is maintained on the United States registry; it is registered in the United States with no other operators listed in the provided data. The configuration documented for this specific A320 emphasizes a high-density, single-class layout and a standard A320ceo equipment fit; condition and market valuation specifics were not included in the supplied data. Notable registry actions beyond the initial build and current ownership were not published in the provided information.

This specific A320-214 is outfitted in a 182-seat high-density single-class airline layout (standard A320ceo seating) appropriate for short- to medium-haul scheduled or high-capacity charter missions. The flight deck is the Airbus A320 family integrated avionics suite, an EFIS-based system that supports common pilot training and operational dispatch across A320ceo fleet types. With a mission radius consistent with its 3,078 nm range and cruise at 447 kts, typical operations would include domestic and near-international trunk routes where high seat density and turnaround efficiency are prioritized. Maintenance considerations follow the common A320ceo practice driven by the CFM56-5B engine model and standard airframe systems; no unique aftermarket amenities or modifications were reported for this airframe.

The Airbus A320-214 sits within the A320 family niche as a narrow-body, medium-range single-aisle airliner competing with variants of the Boeing 737 and newer A320neo family for replacement and growth markets. The fitted CFM56-5B engines and standard A320ceo avionics make the airframe attractive for operators seeking fleet commonality and lower initial acquisition cost compared with newer-generation models. Buyer and charter demand for high-density configured ceo-series A320s typically targets leisure carriers, ACMI/lease operators, and airlines needing high-capacity flexibility; resale and maintenance considerations center on CFM56 support, airframe cycles, and the economics of conversion or reconfiguration from the documented 182-seat layout.
