N259SY

This entry covers airframe N259SY, an Embraer-built regional jet delivered in 2017 with manufacturer serial number 17000656. The airframe is owned by SkyWest Airlines, Inc., a corporation based in St. George, UT, US, and is registered in the US. Delivered new in 2017 to its current corporate owner, the aircraft's documented administrative history centers on airline operation and domestic regional service; detailed registry actions and market valuation data are Not published. Condition highlights specific to this airframe are Not published.

This airframe is outfitted with a typical Embraer ERJ-175LR cabin in a 76-seat dual-class configuration, with a factory or operator option to reconfigure to a high-density layout of up to 88 seats. Operated by SkyWest Airlines, Inc. from its corporate base in St. George, UT, US, the aircraft performs the short- to medium-range regional missions for which the ERJ-175LR is intended, connecting regional and hub airports on domestic routes. Specifics such as the exact avionics suite, onboard amenities, and maintenance history for this individual registration are Not published; routine fleet maintenance and operator-standard cabin service practices would govern ongoing operation and dispatch reliability.

The airframe belongs to the Embraer ERJ-175LR family, a stretched regional jet variant positioned for regional airline operators requiring ~70–88 seat capacity with efficient stage lengths around 2,200 nm and typical cruise speeds near 447 kts. Powered by GE CF34-8E engines producing 14,200 lbf each, the model competes in the regional sector against similar turbofan regional jets and high-density turboprop replacements, balancing seating flexibility and range. For owners and buyers, considerations specific to this aircraft type include fleet commonality, cabin reconfiguration options between dual-class and high-density layouts, and the standard maintenance regimes associated with the ERJ-175LR series.
