N212JQ

This entry documents the specific Embraer regional jet registered as N212JQ, a 2008-built airframe with manufacturer serial number 17000264. The airframe is recorded as owned by REPUBLIC AIRWAYS INC of Indianapolis, IN, and is U.S.-registered; no other prior owners or transfer dates are published in the supplied data. The airframe is an Embraer factory-built Embraer 175LR (ERJ-170-200LR) variant delivered in 2008 and maintained in a single-class regional passenger configuration. Registry notes emphasize the aircraft’s corporate ownership and standard regional configuration rather than bespoke cabin modifications.

The airframe is configured with an 80-seat single-class regional passenger layout, reflecting a high-density, short- to medium-haul mission profile typical for regional carriers. Operated under ownership of REPUBLIC AIRWAYS INC based in Indianapolis, IN, the aircraft’s operational use would align with short-haul trunk and feed routes commonly flown by regional affiliates, where quick turnarounds and high seat counts are prioritized. Standard maintenance considerations for this specific installation include twin CF34-8E5 engine support and common inspection cycles for Embraer 170/175 airframes; no unique cabin amenities or aftermarket modifications are published for this tail number. Avionics and interior fit are not enumerated in the provided data, leaving system-level specifics unlisted.

The Embraer 175LR (ERJ-170-200LR) occupies the regional jet niche for 70–90 seat markets, offering translatable economics for short- to medium-range missions with a 2,100 nm range and cruise near 470 kts. Competing types in the segment include similarly sized regional jets from other OEMs and stretched regional variants; demand is driven by regional carriers needing high-density single-class capacity. Resale and maintenance profiles for this model are influenced by CF34 engine supportability and airframe cycle history; as a 2008-build owned by a major regional operator, the aircraft would typically follow established heavy-check schedules and component support pathways common to Embraer regional fleets.
