N202SY

This airframe, registered as N202SY, is an Embraer 175LR (ERJ-170-200LR) manufactured by Embraer S.A. with construction completed in 2016 and bearing serial number 17000624. The aircraft is owned by SKYWEST AIRLINES INC, a corporation based in St George, UT, US, and is registered in the US registry. Entered service in 2016 with its current operator configuration and has remained under corporate ownership with SkyWest since delivery. The airframe is a fixed-wing multi-engine regional jet maintained to commercial standards for short- to medium-haul airline operations.

The aircraft is configured in a dual-class layout reported as C12Y64, providing 12 business-class seats and 64 economy seats for a total of 88 seats, aligning with regional carrier seat-density practices. Its avionics suite is the Honeywell Primus Epic, supporting integrated flight management, navigation, and crew interfaces suitable for commercial regional operations. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include short- to medium-haul regional routes within the 2,200 nm range and cruise at approximately 480 knots, operating up to a service ceiling of 41,000 ft. Based at SkyWest’s corporate location in St George, UT, the aircraft is expected to be used in scheduled partnerships and feeder services for major network carriers, with maintenance and operations conforming to airline-level inspection cycles and regional operational demands.

The Embraer 175LR (ERJ-170-200LR) occupies a niche in the regional jet sector between smaller regional turbofans and larger narrowbodies, offering up to approximately 88 seats in higher-density airline configurations. Competing models in this class include stretched regional variants and smaller narrowbody aircraft from other manufacturers; airlines select the type for its range-capacity balance and operating economics. For operators and buyers, considerations include life-cycle maintenance of CF34-8E5 engines and avionics support for Honeywell Primus Epic systems, as well as residual value influenced by seating density, maintenance history, and continuous use in regional airline traffic patterns.
