N3221C

This airframe, registered as N3221C, is an Airbus A321-211 built in 1998 with manufacturer's serial number 852. The recorded owner is 'BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE' (Corporation), indicating a corporate trust ownership structure rather than an operating airline; ownership under a financial trustee is the principal notable change in the aircraft’s custodial history. Operator and home base information are Not published in the supplied data. Notable registry actions and operational history are Not published in the supplied data. The airframe has an assessed value of $4,500,000, a figure that reflects its age and configuration within the narrow‑body market.

The cabin is reported in a high-density passenger layout with 199 seats, typically arranged in a 3-3 economy configuration; this reflects a short- to medium-haul, high‑capacity role. Specific avionics fit and equipment lists are Not published in the supplied data, though the A321-211 family commonly carries standard certified commercial avionics consistent with late‑1990s production. Typical mission profiles for this configuration would include dense domestic or regional trunk routes within the aircraft’s 3,200 nm range, operating at cruise speeds near 447 kts and up to a service ceiling of 39,800 ft. Maintenance considerations for this particular airframe would be shaped by its age (1998 build) and trust ownership structure, which often entails lease or asset‑management driven maintenance and records stewardship.

The Airbus A321-211 is part of the A320 family, offering higher single‑aisle capacity in the narrow‑body segment and filling a performance niche between smaller single‑aisles and larger twin-aisle aircraft. Competing models in the same market niche include stretched variants of the Boeing 737 family; demand from buyers and charter operators tends to focus on aircraft with efficient operations and favorable maintenance histories. For a 1998-built A321 with a high‑density 199‑seat layout and an assessed value of $4,500,000, resale and leasing prospects will hinge on maintenance records, engine cycle status for the CFM56-5B3/P powerplants, and any imposed limitations arising from trustee ownership.
