N353AS

This airframe, registered as N353AS, is an Airbus A320-214 built in 1995 with manufacturer serial number 553. It is recorded as owned by AERSALE INC, a corporation based in Coral Gables, FL, US, and carries a US registration. The aircraft’s configuration and registry indicate a typical commercial single-aisle role; notable administrative entries center on its corporate ownership and continued US registration rather than airline-operated service. Condition and valuation specifics are not published in the provided data.

The airframe is equipped in a high-density cabin configuration noted as Y180 (180-seat, high-density) while a typical two-class fit would be approximately 150 seats; the aircraft’s certified seating is 182 seats. Missions for this A320-214 are consistent with short- to medium-haul commercial operations given a range of 3,350 nm and a cruise speed near 447 kts, supporting dense intra-continental routes. Based at the owner’s location in Coral Gables, FL for registry purposes, the airframe would typically operate from US airports under corporate ownership or on lease to regional carriers and charter operators. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe include standard A320 family line maintenance and CFM56 engine support, with the twin CFM56-5B4/P turboshafts rated at 27,000 lbf each.

The Airbus A320-214 sits in the widely used A320 family niche for single-aisle, short-to-medium-haul transport, competing with models such as the Boeing 737-700/-800 series in similar mission profiles. With a service ceiling of 41,000 ft and commonality benefits across A320 variants, demand for used A320s remains strong among low-cost carriers and lessors seeking high-density cabin economics. Resale and maintenance considerations hinge on the CFM56 engine support network and airframe hours; corporate-owned examples like this one often enter lease pools or continue in high-utilization charter roles.
