The airframe is an Embraer ERJ-175LR (ERJ-170-200LR) delivered to and owned by SkyWest Airlines, Inc., a corporate operator based in St. George, UT, US, and carries a United States registration. There are no widely published notable registry actions or secondary ownership transfers for this specific airframe; its operational history has been characterized by single-corporation ownership since manufacture.

The cabin for this specific ERJ-175LR is configured in a 76-seat two-/three-zone layout with 12 First / 20 Main Cabin Extra / 44 Main Cabin seating, reflecting a mixed premium and high-density regional configuration tailored for short- to medium-haul routes. Avionics are fitted with the Honeywell Primus Epic suite, supporting modern flight-deck functionality and line operations typical of regional carriers. Operated and maintained under corporate stewardship by SkyWest Airlines from its St. George, UT base, the aircraft is suited to high-frequency regional services, banked schedules, and interchange operations within a regional feeder network. No specific unique amenities or exceptional maintenance events for this airframe were included in the supplied data.

The Embraer ERJ-175LR variant occupied a performance niche for regional operators seeking greater range and capacity within the 70–90 seat sector, combining a long-range capability of 2,200 nm with a cruise speed near 447 kts and a service ceiling of 41,000 ft. Competitors in this market band typically include stretched regional jets and smaller narrowbodies from other manufacturers; demand centers on airlines needing increased capacity on thin routes and reliable regional feed into larger hubs. From a lifecycle perspective, items for prospective buyers or lessors to consider include engine model commonality (GE CF34-8E5), avionics standardization (Honeywell Primus Epic), and the aircraft’s single-owner operational record, which can simplify maintenance records and resale due diligence.
