N454AV

This airframe, registered as N454AV, is an Airbus A320-214 manufactured by Airbus with builder serial number 5454 and delivered in 2013. The aircraft is recorded as owned by WILMINGTON TRUST CO TRUSTEE, a corporation located in Wilmington, DE, US, and is registered in the US. Its operator configuration has been reported as C12Y168 (approximately 180 total seats), and the airframe carries standard Airbus documentation and certification records consistent with the A320 family. Ownership is held through a corporate trustee arrangement in Wilmington, Delaware, a structure often used for institutional financing or lease custody.

The cabin as reported is a C12Y168 layout, yielding 12 business-class and 168 economy-class seats for a total close to 180 passengers in typical operator trim; the seat count listed for the type is 182, indicating possible variation between factory seating and operator fit. Avionics are the standard Airbus A320 family glass cockpit with EFIS and FMS fit, providing common pilot interfaces and systems integration across the A320 fleet. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include short- to medium-haul scheduled or charter routes within a 3,300 nm range and cruise at approximately 447 kts, operating from bases consistent with US registry and operator networks. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft center on the widely supported CFM56-5B engine type and A320 systems commonality, facilitating parts availability and line maintenance at major hubs.

The Airbus A320-214 sits in the single-aisle, narrow-body segment designed for efficient short-to-medium-haul operations; its performance envelope (ceiling 41,000 ft, range 3,300 nm, cruise 447 kts) competes directly with contemporary single-aisle types. The A320 family is known for strong aftermarket demand, operator familiarity, and a large pool of trained crews and maintenance providers, which benefits resale and lease prospects for this airframe. Buyers and lessors evaluating N454AV will consider the 2013 build status, the trustee ownership structure, the common CFM56-5B engine installation, and the reported C12Y168 operator configuration when assessing market value, utilization potential, and maintenance scheduling.
