N604NK

This airframe, registered as N604NK, is an Airbus-built narrowbody delivered in 2010 with manufacturer serial number 4431. The aircraft is a member of the A320 family produced by Airbus and carries U.S. registration (US). Ownership is held by BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE, a corporate trustee based in Salt Lake City, Utah; the trustee ownership indicates the aircraft has been held under a corporate trust arrangement rather than direct operator title. As a mid-life A320-232, the airframe’s publicly recorded data emphasize foundational characteristics (serial, year, and trustee ownership) with no separate operator or recent registry action published in the supplied dataset.

As an Airbus A320-232, this airframe conforms to the common single-aisle A320 cabin baseline used in short- to medium-haul airline operations. Typical fit for the model includes mixed economy and premium seating layouts in operator service, though specific seat count and bespoke cabin amenities for N604NK are not published in the provided data. Avionics and systems generally reflect the A320 family standard type certificate and common retrofit paths, supporting airline short- to medium-range routes up to its listed range of 3,078 nm and cruise speeds around 511 kts. Maintenance considerations for this aircraft center on V2500 engine shop visits and airframe checks aligned with the A320 maintenance program; trustee ownership may affect records access and lease-related maintenance scheduling.

The Airbus A320-232 occupies the core single-aisle short- to medium-haul market, competing with narrowbody types such as Boeing 737 variants. With two IAE V2500 engines delivering 27,000 lbf each, the type balances fuel efficiency and thrust suitable for dense short-haul operations and transcontinental missions within its range. Buyer and charter demand for A320 family airframes remains robust in secondary markets, though resale and maintenance planning for a 2010 airframe like N604NK hinge on engine cycles, maintenance records, and any encumbrances related to its corporate trustee ownership.
