N282GX

This entry covers airframe N282GX, an Airbus A320-214 completed in 2006 with manufacturer serial number 2851. The airframe is recorded in the United States registry and is owned by the corporate trustee UMB BANK NA TRUSTEE, based in Salt Lake City, UT, US. The airframe carries a standard commercial-finance ownership profile consistent with trust-held assets; no separate operator name or additional historic registry actions are published in the supplied data. Condition and valuation highlights are not published beyond the trustee ownership and factory delivery class.

The aircraft is fitted in a high-density single-aisle cabin layout, operator-configured and listed at 182 seats, optimized for short- to medium-haul sector utilization. The flight deck retains the Airbus A320 standard avionics suite, featuring the proprietary EFIS architecture and fly-by-wire control laws typical of the family, supporting airline operational commonality and crew training efficiencies. Typical mission profiles for this configuration emphasize high-frequency scheduled services or wet-lease/ACMI deployments on routes within the aircraft’s 3,000 nm range, operating from bases consistent with U.S. registry operations. Maintenance considerations follow the A320 A-check/B-check cycle and CFM56-5B engine shop visit intervals; specific maintenance status or unique cabin amenities for this airframe are not published.

The Airbus A320-214 is a member of the A320 family occupying the single-aisle, short- to medium-range market niche, offering cruise performance near 430 kts and service ceilings to 41,000 ft. It competes directly with other narrowbodies in similar seating bands and engine options, notably rival narrowbodies offering high-density layouts for low-cost carriers. Buyer and charter demand for trust-held A320s often centers on lessee economics and remaining airframe life; resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe hinge on engine cycles and operator-configured high-density cabin utilization.
