Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N170XY, is an Embraer-built regional jet completed in 2008 with manufacturer serial number 17000241. The airframe is a long-range variant, the Embraer ERJ-175 LR, and is recorded as owned by SWIFLITE AIRCRAFT CORP (a corporation based in Houston, TX) with a US registration. Current recorded ownership by SWIFLITE AIRCRAFT CORP represents the primary documented corporate operator/home base relationship for this airframe. No further registry transfers or valuation figures are published in the supplied data.
The airframe has been completed in a VIP executive layout following a corporate/VIP conversion from an airline baseline, producing a reduced seat count relative to a high-density airline configuration while retaining 80 seats as documented. Avionics fit is the Honeywell Primus Epic suite, consistent with common E-Jet installations and supporting modern integrated flight management and cockpit systems. Typical mission profiles for this configuration, given the 2,200 nm range and long-range ERJ-175 designation, would center on trans-regional corporate and charter operations within the continental US and nearby international sectors; the US registration and Houston-based corporate owner indicate an operator base oriented toward Texan and Gulf-region hub activity. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe include support for the CF34-8E5 engines and factory-equivalent E-Jet avionics, with corporate/VIP interior systems potentially requiring specialized completions and interior maintenance compared with airline-standard layouts.
The Embraer ERJ-175 LR occupies a performance niche as a stretched regional jet with long-range capability and a high single-aisle comfort level when outfitted for corporate use. Competing models in mission profile would include other regional jets and small narrowbodies adapted for corporate or VIP transport. Buyer and charter demand for this configuration typically prizes range, speed (cruise 470 kts) and a comfortable cabin; resale and maintenance considerations will hinge on airframe hours, CF34 support, and the condition of the VIP conversion.
