N2043J

This airframe, registered as N2043J, is an Airbus-built single-aisle airliner delivered in 2020 with manufacturer serial number 9191. The type designation for this example is the Airbus A321-271NX, built by Airbus and currently held in trust by UMB BANK N.A. TRUSTEE (a corporate trustee based in Salt Lake City, UT, US). The aircraft is U.S.-registered and configured for high-capacity scheduled service; notable registry entries include its U.S. registration and its placement into corporate trust ownership for asset management or lease financing purposes. Valuation and condition indicators list an approximate market value of $64,000,000, and the airframe is documented in a fixed-wing multi-engine transport category.

This specific A321-271NX is outfitted in a high-density all-economy cabin with 246 seats, intended for high-capacity scheduled operations on short- to medium- to long-range trunk routes within its 4,000 nm capability. The airframe’s twin IAE PW1133G-JM high-bypass geared turbofan engines provide the installed thrust rating of 33,110 lbf per engine, supporting cruise speeds near 472 kts and typical cruise altitudes up to 39,000 ft. As a trust-owned asset, its operational deployment is likely governed by leasing agreements or an operator under contract; routine maintenance considerations focus on narrowbody line maintenance and engine shop visits consistent with the PW1100G family lifecycle.

The A321-271NX sits in the A320neo family niche as a high-capacity, fuel-efficient single-aisle workhorse optimized for airlines seeking lower seat-mile costs on dense routes. It competes with stretched narrowbodies and high-density variants from other manufacturers offering similar range and capacity; its 4,000 nm range and 246-seat high-density layout position it for transcontinental and longer thin trunk sectors. Buyer and leasing demand for neo-family single-aisles has been strong, but resale and maintenance considerations include PW1100G series engine shop visit schedules and airframe utilization tied to high-density interior refurbishment cycles. Ownership via a corporate trustee such as UMB BANK N.A. TRUSTEE reflects typical asset-management structures in the narrowbody leasing market.
