Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N533VL, is an Airbus A320neo built by Airbus S.A.S. in 2018 with manufacturer serial number 7862. The airframe is owned by WILMINGTON TRUST CO TRUSTEE, a corporate trustee based in Wilmington, DE, US, and carries a US registration. Public records indicate the trustee ownership but do not list a long-term operator or home-base in the provided data set; no change-of-operator or other registry actions are published in the supplied data. Condition and valuation specifics are not published in the supplied data.
The airframe is outfitted in a high-density single-class cabin, listed as Y186, reflecting an operator configuration optimized for maximum passenger capacity. With its defined cruise speed of 450 kts and a range of 3,400 nm, the aircraft is configured for short- to medium-haul trunk routes in high-demand markets where single-class, high-density seating is economical. The twin IAE PW1127G-JM geared turbofan engines provide the thrust required for dense seating operations while targeting improved fuel burn relative to prior-generation A320ceo models. Specific avionics fit, exact operator roster, in-service maintenance status, and interior amenity details are not published in the provided dataset.
The airframe is an example of the Airbus A320-271N (A320neo) family, positioned to deliver improved fuel efficiency, lower per-seat operating costs, and extended range relative to earlier A320ceo variants. Competing types in the single-aisle market include newer Boeing 737 MAX and current-generation narrowbodies from other OEMs, with buyer demand driven by operators seeking high-density layouts and efficient short/medium-haul operations. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe center on the neo engine type (IAE PW1127G-JM), high-utilization cabin configuration (Y186), and the aircraft’s age since its 2018 build year.
