Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N539VL, is an Airbus A320-271N (A320neo) built in 2018 with manufacturer serial number 8490. It is owned by WILMINGTON TRUST CO TRUSTEE, a corporation located in Wilmington, DE, US, and is registered in the US. The airframe is configured for commercial passenger service in a high-density layout for Volaris operations and has been maintained and operated consistent with narrow-body single-aisle short- to medium-haul deployment. Ownership is held by a corporate trustee structure, reflecting financial or leasing arrangements typical for single-aircraft asset ownership.

The aircraft carries a single-class, high-density passenger layout of approximately 180–190 seats specifically for Volaris operations, emphasizing seat-capacity optimization over premium classes. Typical mission profiles for this airframe focus on short- to medium-haul scheduled passenger routes where high seat density and lower per-seat operating costs are prioritized. Avionics and systems are consistent with the A320neo family standard fit for airline operations; maintenance considerations follow narrow-body cyclic utilization patterns associated with high-density, short-turn regional schedules. Base of operations and crew deployment align with Volaris route networks when the aircraft is in active service with that operator.

The Airbus A320-271N (A320neo) to which this airframe belongs occupies the narrow-body single-aisle market niche for efficient short- and medium-range operations, offering improved fuel efficiency relative to prior-generation A320ceo types through its PW1100G-family geared turbofan integration — represented here by IAE PW1127G-JM engines. With a 3,400 nm range and cruise near 447 kts, the type competes directly with contemporary single-aisle models in airline short- to medium-haul networks. Buyers and lessors consider high-density configurations like this one attractive for low-cost carriers, while maintenance and resale valuations reflect engine choice, cycle history, and interior density when assessing asset liquidity.
