N308FR

This airframe, registered as N308FR, is an Airbus A320neo family example built in 2017 with manufacturer's serial number 7538. It is an Airbus A320-251N powered for the A320neo specification and is currently owned by BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE, a corporation located in Salt Lake City, UT, US. The airframe carries a US registration and a high-density single-class cabin of approximately 190 seats, and its recorded configuration and trustee ownership indicate a role oriented toward commercial passenger services or lease returns rather than private use. Notable registry status: maintained under a US corporate trustee arrangement, which can affect lessee/operator transitions and asset management.

The aircraft is outfitted in a high-density single-class cabin holding approximately 190 seats, reflecting a configuration optimized for short- to medium-haul, high-capacity routes. Avionics and systems are standard to the A320-251N production fit, supporting typical airline operational profiles such as frequent-sector turnarounds and dense schedule utilization. With a cruise speed of 450 kts and a range of 3,400 nm, this airframe is well suited for domestic and transcontinental missions within the continental United States and neighboring regions. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe will follow Airbus A320neo procedures and engine care cycles for the LEAP-1A26 units, and trustee ownership may influence maintenance contracting and records access during ownership or lease transitions.

The Airbus A320-251N belongs to the A320neo family, which occupies the single-aisle, high-demand short- to medium-range market and competes directly with later variants of the Boeing 737 family. Its LEAP-powered configuration delivers improved fuel efficiency and reduced noise relative to prior A320ceo models, supporting airline demand for lower operating costs on dense routes. For buyers and lessors, the high-density 190-seat layout increases revenue potential on high-demand sectors but can reduce flexibility for conversion to two-class configurations; resale and lease prospects will hinge on cabin refit costs, engine maintenance status, and continuity of US registration and trustee-held documentation.
