N549VL

This airframe, registered as N549VL, is an Airbus-built narrow-body delivered in 2023 with manufacturer serial number 11358. The airframe is a member of the Airbus A320neo family identified specifically as the Airbus A320-271N and is recorded on U.S. registry (US). Ownership is held by the corporate trustee BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE of Salt Lake City, UT, US, and the registry entries reflect that corporate ownership without publicly listed separate commercial operator or distinct base of operations. Registered in the United States under corporate trustee ownership, this airframe’s provenance is straightforward with no additional public ownership transfers noted in the supplied data.

The cabin is fitted in a single-class high-density configuration accommodating approximately 186–190 economy seats, reflecting a layout optimized for maximum passenger capacity on short- to medium-range missions. The flight deck conforms to the Airbus A320 family standard with an EFIS-equipped, fly-by-wire avionics suite (Airbus A320 family flight deck (EFIS, fly-by-wire)), supporting standard airline operations and airline-type training and maintenance practices. Typical mission profiles for this configuration align with high-frequency, medium-range trunk or point-to-point routes consistent with the airframe’s 3,400 nm range and 470 kts cruise capability. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe center on the geared turbofan engines (IAE PW1127G-JM) and high-utilization cabin layout which can concentrate wear on seats and high-turnaround systems.

As an Airbus A320-271N, this airframe occupies the A320neo-family niche focused on improved fuel efficiency and higher-density seating relative to legacy single-aisle variants. The combination of 26,345 lbf geared turbofan engines, 3,400 nm range, and a near-190-seat layout targets operators seeking cost-efficient medium-range capacity. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe emphasize lifecycle support for the PW1127G-JM engines and the economic implications of a high-density interior on refurbishment cycles and market appeal within single-class, high-capacity operator segments.
