N214JQ

This airframe, registered N214JQ, is an Embraer-built regional jet completed in 2008 under serial number 17000267. It is listed as owned by REPUBLIC AIRWAYS INC, a corporation based in Indianapolis, IN, US, which has operated the type in high-density regional service. The airframe carries a US registration and has been configured for airline-style operations since delivery. Valuation and detailed condition reports for this specific airframe are Not published, and no public record of notable registry actions beyond standard commercial registration has been provided.

The aircraft is fitted in an airline high-density single-class layout with 80 seats, reflecting a role focused on short- to medium-haul regional shuttle and high-frequency trunk routes. Avionics are provided by Honeywell Primus Epic, supporting modern flight-deck functionality and commonality with other regional and mainline fleets that use Honeywell systems. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include regional point-to-point operations within the continental US, leveraging a maximum ferry or mission range of 2,200 nm and cruise speed near 480 kts to maintain tight schedules. Maintenance considerations align with the CF34-8E5 engine pedigree and Embraer regional fleet practices; no unique cabin amenities or special equipment beyond the stated configuration have been documented.

The airframe belongs to the Embraer ERJ-170/175 family, here as an Embraer ERJ-175LR (ERJ-170-200 LR) variant, which occupies the regional 70–88 seat niche delivering efficient short-to-medium haul performance. Competing types in this segment include smaller mainline narrowbodies and stretched regional jets from other manufacturers; the ERJ-175LR’s combination of the CF34-8E5 powerplant, a 41,000 ft service ceiling, and airline-focused high-density seating supports high-frequency regional operations and charter demand. Resale and maintenance considerations typically hinge on engine cycles, interior density, and avionics commonality such as the Honeywell Primus Epic fit; specific market valuation for this airframe is Not published.
