N628QX

This entry covers airframe N628QX, an Embraer 175LR (ERJ-170-200LR / E175LR) built in 2017 with manufacturer serial number 17000680. The airframe is owned by Horizon Air Industries Inc, a corporate owner located in Seattle, WA, US, and is registered in the US; no prior ownership changes are published. There are no publicly listed notable registry actions for this airframe, and valuation or specific condition assessments are Not published. The aircraft is a fixed-wing multi-engine regional jet operated under its corporate owner’s fleet identity, based in Seattle.

The cabin of N628QX is configured with a dual-class layout of C12 / Y64 totaling 76 seats, reflecting a typical regional airline arrangement combining a 12-seat premium cabin and a 64-seat economy cabin. Operated from its owner’s Seattle base, the airframe’s performance—particularly its 2,100 nm range and cruise of 447 kts—suits short- to medium-haul regional routes and high-frequency shuttle operations along West Coast and transcontinental sectors within North America. Specific avionics fit or unique onboard amenities for this airframe are Not published, and routine maintenance considerations align with the CF34-8E engine lifecycle management practised across the E175LR fleet. As a 2017-build aircraft, typical considerations would include remaining shop visit cycles and component life limits relative to entry-into-service dates, though detailed status is Not published for this serial.

The Embraer E175LR family occupies the regional jet niche for operators seeking 70–90 seat capacity with favorable economics and stage lengths up to about 2,100 nm, offering a higher seat count than smaller regional jets while maintaining airport compatibility. Primary competition in this segment includes high-density variants of other regional jets and smaller mainline narrowbodies configured for regional markets. Demand among regional carriers and corporate fleet operators focuses on proven CF34-8E engine support, fleet commonality, and residual value tied to configuration—here a 76-seat C12/Y64 arrangement—factors that influence maintenance planning and resale prospects for an airframe like N628QX.
