N429AN

The airframe, registered as N429AN, is an Airbus A321-253NX completed in 2021 with manufacturer serial number 10403. The aircraft is held by BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE, a corporation located in Salt Lake City, UT, US, and is registered in the US. As a relatively recent build in the Airbus A321neo family, this airframe reflects new-technology propulsion and flight-deck installations introduced across the type since certification. Registry records indicate corporate trustee ownership rather than an operating airline and no other operators or transfers are published in the provided data.

This specific A321-253NX is outfitted in an airline single-aisle two-class / high-density operator layout with operator-specific seating arrangements, giving flexibility for mixed short- to medium-haul revenue missions. The airframe incorporates the Airbus A320-family integrated flight deck with glass EFIS and fly-by-wire flight control laws, supporting standard airline operating procedures and commonality with fleet siblings. Typical mission profiles for this configuration leverage the aircraft’s extended range capability for transcontinental and thin long-range routes up to the certified 4,000 nm, while cruise performance around 473 kts enables efficient point-to-point scheduling. Maintenance and operational considerations for this airframe focus on support for the LEAP-1A turbofan family and the avionics commonality that facilitates pilot training and parts pooling within A320-family operators.

The Airbus A321-253NX occupies the single-aisle, high-capacity medium- to long-range niche within the A320neo family, offering extended range and higher per-seat efficiency compared with earlier A321ceo variants. Competing types in the market generally include stretched narrowbody derivatives from other manufacturers, but the A321neo’s combination of 222-seat high-density capability and 4,000 nm range targets airlines seeking single-aisle long-thin route economics. For buyers and lessors, recent-build airframes such as serial 10403 present favorable residual-life profiles but require lifecycle planning for LEAP engine support and adherence to Airbus A320-family avionics and systems maintenance programs.
