N228NV

This airframe, registered as N228NV, is an Airbus A320-214 built in 1997 with manufacturer serial number 716. The airframe is recorded as owned by SUNRISE ASSET MANAGEMENT LLC (an LLC based in Las Vegas, NV, US), a corporate lessor profile that suggests asset-management operation rather than direct airline employment. It is registered in the United States and carries a US registration; no separate commercial operator line is published in the provided data. Notable registry items include the current recorded owner and U.S. registration under the tail N228NV, while condition and valuation specifics are not published in the supplied dataset.

The aircraft is outfitted in a high-density single-class configuration with 182 seats, reflecting an airline-style layout optimized for short- to medium-haul passenger operations. The flight deck is the standard Airbus A320 EFIS-equipped avionics fit, consistent with common airline operational practices for the A320 family. With a typical cruise speed of 440 kts and a range of 3,300 nm, the airframe is suited to dense domestic and regional networks or wet/dry lease tasks where high seat-count and efficiency per block hour are required. As an asset held by SUNRISE ASSET MANAGEMENT LLC, maintenance considerations would follow standard A320 line and base maintenance programs tied to CFM56-5B engine support and component shop visit cycles; specific service history is not published in the supplied data.

The Airbus A320-214 sits in the highly competitive single-aisle segment as part of the A320 family, delivering a balance of capacity and short- to medium-range performance; this airframe's 182-seat, high-density layout targets operators focused on maximum revenue seats per flight. Competitors in the same mission space include stretched single-aisle types and high-density variants of Boeing narrowbodies. Market demand for late-1990s A320s is typically driven by replacement economics, engine and avionics commonality, and airframe condition; resale and lease considerations for this specific aircraft would center on age-related maintenance cycles and the continued support for CFM56-5B engines and A320 systems.
