This specific E175LR is operated by SkyWest and is nominally certificated in the fixed-wing multi-engine category. Operator cabin reporting for this aircraft lists a 70-seat layout: 12 Business / 20 Eco+ / 38 Economy, which indicates an alternate high-comfort operational configuration compared with the published certified seating of 88; this reflects typical regional operator reconfigurations for scope clauses and market missions. The aircraft’s twin GE CF34-8E5 engines provide regional performance suitable for trans-regional and short transcontinental sectors; typical missions for this airframe include high-frequency, short- to medium-haul feeder services from SkyWest’s operational bases. Maintenance and operational considerations follow Embraer E175LR fleet practices, emphasizing engine and landing-gear cycle management for high-utilization regional schedules.

The Embraer ERJ-170-200 LL (E175LR / E75L) occupies the 70–90 seat regional jet niche, offering a 2,200 nm range and a 41,000 ft ceiling that support extended regional sectors and thin long-range routes. Competing models in this class include variants of the Mitsubishi SpaceJet (developmental), Bombardier CRJ900 series, and Airbus A220-100 in overlapping missions depending on seatings and range. Buyer and charter demand for E175LR airframes typically centers on regional carriers needing stage-length flexibility and favorable seat-mile economics; resale considerations for this airframe hinge on airframe cycles, interior reconfiguration (as evidenced by the 70-seat operator layout), and continued support for the GE CF34-8E5 engine type.
