Model & Market Context
The airframe registered as N285AY is an Airbus A330-243 built in 2010 with manufacturer serial number 1100. The aircraft is owned by JETRAN LLC, an LLC based in Horseshoe Bay, TX, US, and carries a United States registration. The airframe’s documented cabin reconfiguration occurred in November 2017, when layout codes changed from an earlier configuration to a revised plan; no other public operator transitions are recorded in the supplied data. Condition and valuation details are not published in the provided information.
The aircraft is configured in a two-class airline layout as reported, with reconfiguration history showing codes C20Y238 (earlier) and C20W21Y206 (reconfigured Nov 2017), indicating changes to the forward and main cabin seat complements over its operational life. Typical mission profiles for this airframe type include long-haul, high-capacity routes enabled by a manufacturer's range of 8,150 nm and cruise speeds around 470 kts, matching transoceanic airline operations or high-utilization charter work. As a twin-engine, fixed-wing multi-engine category transport, routine maintenance considerations align with Trent 772 series engine support and A330 airframe heavy-check cycles; specific avionics fit and unique onboard amenities for this individual aircraft are not published in the supplied data. The owner’s base in Horseshoe Bay, Texas, suggests U.S.-centric registry and any maintenance supervision would occur under U.S. regulatory oversight.
The Airbus A330-200 family, of which the A330-243 is a variant, occupies a market niche for medium- to long-range widebody operations offering competitive payload-range and operating economics for two-engine long-haul services. Competing models include Boeing widebody twins in similar mission segments. Demand from charter operators and medium-haul airlines often focuses on airframes with Rolls-Royce Trent engines and established maintenance records; resale considerations for this specific airframe will reflect its 2010 manufacture date, serial 1100, and the documented 2017 cabin reconfiguration when assessing market value and campaign costs.
