Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N508VL, is an Airbus A320-233 built by Airbus S.A.S. in 2011 with manufacturer serial number 4950. It is owned and operated by Volaris (an airline based in Mexico), while carrying a US registration — an arrangement that has involved cross-border registry/operational considerations. The aircraft is a narrow-body, fixed-wing multi-engine type that has served in Volaris’s single-aisle fleet since delivery. No separate valuation or condition report is provided in the supplied data.

The cabin on this specific operator-configured A320 is fitted for 26 premium / 149 economy (175 total, operator layout), reflecting a medium-density single-aisle passenger role tailored to Volaris’s market. With a cruise speed of 447 kts and a maximum range of 3,350 nm, the airplane is suitable for short- to medium-haul scheduled services and point-to-point international sectors within the Americas. Its twin IAE V2527E-A5 engines dictate routine maintenance planning consistent with in-service A320 family practices and supplier support chains. The aircraft’s US registration while being Mexico-based under Volaris points to administrative arrangements that affect crewing, compliance and line maintenance provisioning.

As an Airbus A320-233, serial 4950 built in 2011, this airframe sits within the A320 family niche for single-aisle, short- to medium-range commercial operations, offering around 175 seats in a two-class-equipped configuration. Its performance parameters — cruise at 447 kts, ceiling 41,000 ft, and 3,350 nm range — align it with carriers seeking high-frequency trunk routes and transborder services. The twin IAE V2527E-A5 engines and common A320 type rating support fleet commonality for operators like Volaris, while resale and maintenance considerations are informed by its build year (2011) and cumulative utilization under airline operation.
