N291NV

This article covers airframe N291NV, an Airbus-built narrowbody delivered in 2004 with manufacturer's serial number 2206. The aircraft is a model Airbus A320-214 originally manufactured by Airbus and is registered in the US. It is owned and operated by Allegiant Air LLC, a corporation based in Las Vegas, NV, US; operational control and registry actions beyond ownership are not published. Condition assessments and market valuation for this specific airframe are not published.

The airframe configured as an Airbus A320-214 typically carries the single-aisle cabin layout characteristic of the A320 family; specific seating counts and interior refurbishment records for N291NV are not published. The installed avionics are the standard Airbus A320 family flight deck (standard A320 avionics suite), supporting conventional two-pilot operations and common Airbus navigation and flight-management functionality. Operated by Allegiant Air LLC out of its Las Vegas base, the aircraft is suited to the airline’s short- to medium-haul point-to-point leisure network, performing high-frequency domestic missions within the A320’s range and cruise performance envelope. Maintenance considerations follow A320 family schedules for CFM56-5B engines and airframe service programs; specific maintenance status for this tail number is not published.

The Airbus A320-214 sits in the A320 family niche as a medium-range, single-aisle airliner commonly used for high-cycle, short- to medium-haul operations. With twin CFM56-5B4/P engines producing 27,000 lbf thrust each, and a typical cruise of 447 kts and range of 3,300 nm, the type competes with contemporary narrowbodies for airline replacement and growth—most notably variants of the Boeing 737 family. Demand among carriers and lessors remains strong for A320-series aircraft due to commonality benefits, but resale and heavy maintenance considerations hinge on engine shop visit histories and airframe cycle counts, details of which for N291NV are not published.
