The airframe is owned by SKYWEST AIRLINES INC, a corporation based in St. George, UT, US, and is entered on the United States civil aircraft register. The type is a fixed-wing multi-engine regional jet configured in a high-density single-class arrangement and is notable within the operator's fleet for its 88-seat layout and long-range variant designation.

The airframe operates in a high-density single-class cabin with 88 seats, intended to maximize passenger capacity for regional airline missions. As an E175-200LR with a 2,200 nm range and a 41,000 ft ceiling, this aircraft is configured for medium-length regional routes where higher seat counts and extended stage length are required. Maintenance and operational planning for this specific jet center on its twin CF34-8E5 engines, each rated at 14,510 lbf, which influence routine engine shop visits, overhaul cycles, and parts provisioning. The owner-operator base in St. George, UT positions the airframe to serve a network of regional flows consistent with single-class, high-density utilization; no unique cabin amenities beyond the specified layout are published in the provided data.

The airframe belongs to the Embraer ERJ-170/175 family as an E175-200LR, a long-range variant designed to offer extended stage lengths while preserving a high-density seating configuration. Performance characteristics from the supplied data — notably the 447 kts cruise and 2,200 nm range — place this airframe in a role emphasizing regional routes with elevated capacity. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific registration will center on the airframe’s build year (2018), serial (17000724), operator utilization profile with 88 seats, and the well-established CF34-8E5 engine type; no further market valuation or aftermarket status is provided in the dataset.
