N429YX

The airframe N429YX is an Embraer ERJ-170-200LR (marketed as the E175LR) built in 2014 with manufacturer serial number 17000408. This airliner is registered in the United States and is owned by Republic Airways, a corporate owner based in Indianapolis, IN, US, which also acts as the principal operator for the type in regional airline service. The aircraft entered service following its 2014 build and is recorded on U.S. civil registers; official valuation and detailed condition reports are not published. Notable registry actions are limited to its standard U.S. registration and corporate ownership record with Republic Airways.

The cabin of N429YX is configured for 76 passengers with a two-class layout of 12 business / 64 economy (76 total), reflecting typical regional jet service patterns for higher-density short-to-medium routes. Operated by Republic Airways from its Indianapolis base, the airframe is employed on scheduled regional missions where the LR (long-range) performance of the E175LR supports longer sector utilization and frequency-intensive networks. Avionics fit and specific interior finishes for this serial are according to the factory E175LR standard production for 2014 deliveries; routine maintenance follows type certificate holder and operator programs, with line and heavy checks conducted under Republic Airways’ established maintenance schedules.

The Embraer ERJ-170-200LR (E175LR) occupies a niche as a 76-seat regional jet optimized for airlines needing regional capacity with extended range up to 2,150 nm and cruise speeds near 470 kts. It competes with stretched regional and smaller mainline narrowbodies in terms of seat capacity and stage length, attracting carriers that prioritize frequency and regional feed. For operators and prospective buyers, considerations include the CF34-8E engine maintenance lifecycle, airframe utilization history, and resale demand driven by regional carriers; the LR variant’s extended range and typical two-class 76-seat layout influence both mission flexibility and aftermarket value.
