N350FR

This airframe, registered as N350FR, is an Airbus A320-251N built in 2019 with manufacturer's serial number 8857. The airframe is owned by UMB BANK NA TRUSTEE (corporation), Salt Lake City, UT, US, reflecting a financial-asset ownership structure rather than a direct operating carrier. Operator/home base: Not published. No public record of notable registry actions beyond its U.S. registration is provided; the airframe is configured and maintained to a commercial high-density specification consistent with its ownership for lease or asset-backed financing purposes.

The cabin is fitted in a high-density single-class passenger layout, described as approximately 190 economy seats in a Frontier configuration, indicating a dense, no-frills commercial seating plan suitable for short- to medium-haul point-to-point operations. The flight deck is the Airbus A320 family integrated glass cockpit with fly-by-wire controls, supporting modern avionics and airline operational commonality across the A320neo family. Typical mission profiles for this configuration emphasize high-frequency, high-utilization short- to medium-range routes within a U.S. network or comparable markets, leveraging the aircraft’s 3,400 nm range and cruise speed of 473 kts. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe follow A320neo-series regimes and LEAP-1A engine shop visit planning, while asset managers commonly prioritize oversight for aircraft held in trust structures.

The Airbus A320-251N belongs to the A320neo family, occupying the single-aisle, narrow-body segment optimized for improved fuel efficiency and lower operating costs versus earlier A320ceo variants. With LEAP-1A engines and a 3,400 nm range, it competes directly with high-density configurations of the Boeing 737 MAX family for short- to medium-haul low-cost carrier demand. Buyer and lease interest typically focuses on fleet commonality, engine shop visit status, and cabin configuration; high-density 190-seat layouts can reduce appeal to full-service carriers but increase attractiveness to low-cost operators and ACMI/short-term lessors. Resale and maintenance planning for this serial (8857) will center on remaining lease term prospects, utilization history, and LEAP engine maintenance cycles.
