N344DN

The airframe bearing tail number N344DN is an Airbus-built Airbus A321-211, serial 8171, completed in 2018. The airframe is registered in the US and is held by BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE (a corporate owner located in Salt Lake City, UT), which indicates trustee-style corporate ownership rather than identifiable airline operation. The aircraft remains recorded under corporate trustee ownership in Salt Lake City, UT, and its configuration as an airline-configured high-density airframe is a primary condition note for valuation and operational role. Registry and configuration entries emphasize its use as a high-capacity passenger transport rather than a corporate or VIP conversion.

The cabin of this airframe is an airline-configured high-density layout with 199 seats, indicating a focus on maximum passenger capacity within the narrowbody A321 fuselage. While specific avionics fit and operator details are not disclosed in the provided data, the combination of a 2,650 nm range and 447 kt cruise speed aligns the airframe to short- to medium-haul, high-frequency commercial routes where seat density and turnaround economics are paramount. The use of two CFM56-5B engines implies standard maintenance pathways associated with common narrowbody fleets, and the corporate trustee ownership structure suggests the aircraft may be available for lease, asset management, or finance-oriented utilization rather than dedicated single-airline service.

As an Airbus-manufactured Airbus A321-211, serial 8171, this airframe sits in the high-capacity narrowbody segment, offering extended passenger density for medium-range missions defined by its 2,650 nm range and 199-seat cabin. The presence of CFM56-5B powerplants and a 2018 build year places the aircraft in a relatively modern maintenance and economic profile while retaining common-engine supportability. Its high-density seating and trustee ownership are salient for potential lessors or operators assessing residual value, redeployment, or conversion considerations within the narrowbody asset market.
