N294JB

This entry covers airframe N294JB, an Embraer ERJ-190-100IGW (E190) built in 2008 with manufacturer serial number 19000185. The aircraft is owned by JETBLUE AIRWAYS CORP (a corporation based in Long Island City, NY, US) and is U.S.-registered (US). Operated in JetBlue's single-class configuration since placement with the carrier, the airframe is valued at approximately $8,000,000 in current assessments. As a fixed-wing multi-engine regional jet, this specific E190 reflects the airline's domestic short- to medium-haul deployment and typical fleet-management lifecycle.

Airframe N294JB is configured in JetBlue single-class layout with approximately 100 seats arranged 2-2 abreast, reflecting the carrier's high-density short- to medium-range passenger role. The flight deck is equipped with a Honeywell Primus Epic digital avionics suite common to the E-Jet family, supporting modern glass-cockpit workflows and airline-standard flight management capabilities. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include domestic trunk and regional sectors within the aircraft's 2,450 nm range and cruise speeds near 447 kts, operating up to its service ceiling of 41,000 ft. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe center on CF34-series engine care and supportability, airframe aging from a 2008 production year, and adherence to JetBlue’s fleet maintenance schedules under U.S. registry and operating rules.

The Embraer ERJ-190-100IGW sits in the regional jet niche as a 100-seat, twin-engine sub-mainline airliner offering efficient short- and medium-haul economics versus larger single-aisle types. Competing models occupy similar mission roles and include other regional jets and smaller narrowbody types; buyer and lease demand often hinges on airframe age, seating density, and engine support. For N294JB, resale and secondary-market value considerations are influenced by its 2008 build year, CF34-10E5 propulsion, and established operator support from JETBLUE AIRWAYS CORP, which can mitigate remarketing costs and maintenance downtime.
