Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N169UW, is an Airbus-built narrow-body entered into service in 2001 as an Airbus A321-211, serial number 1455. The documented owner is the corporation BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE of Salt Lake City, UT, and the airframe carries an American Airlines two-class high-capacity cabin installation, indicating mainline operator configuration. Ownership is recorded under a corporate trustee in Salt Lake City, and other public registry actions or valuation notes are Not published. Operator home base and a detailed operational history beyond the trustee ownership are Not published.
The aircraft is fitted with an American Airlines two-class high-capacity A321 layout, an example mainline configuration emphasizing denser seating with a combination of business class, economy comfort, and standard economy to reach high single-aisle capacity; the provided seat count is 199. Typical mission profiles for this configuration prioritize medium-haul mainline routes where high passenger density and frequent turnarounds are required, consistent with the model’s 3,200 nm range and 450 kts cruise speed. Avionics and specific in-service maintenance status are Not published; maintenance considerations for this airframe would follow Airbus A321-200 series schedules and CFM56-5B engine programs common to legacy A321 operators.
The Airbus A321-211 is a member of the A320 family, positioned as a high-capacity single-aisle performer competing with stretched narrowbodies for short- to medium-haul trunk routes. With two CFM56-5B3/P engines rated at 22,000 lbf each and a service ceiling near 39,800 ft, this airframe suits dense mainline operations where seat-mile economics matter. Resale and remarketing considerations for a 2001-build A321 include airframe age, configuration (the American Airlines high-capacity fit affects appeal), engine program status, and corporate/trust ownership structures that can influence leaseback or sale processes.
