N631NK

This airframe, registered as N631NK, is an Airbus-built narrow-body jet, model Airbus A320-232, manufactured in 2014 with manufacturer's serial number 6327. The aircraft is recorded as owned by UMB BANK NA - TRUSTEE, a corporate trustee based in Salt Lake City, UT, US, and carries a US registration. Operator and specific base-of-operations details are not published for this airframe. Notable registry actions include its designation under a corporate trustee ownership structure, indicating placement in trust for financial or leasing arrangements rather than direct airline ownership; public records on valuation and condition highlights are not published.

The aircraft is outfitted in a high-density single-class airline layout configured for approximately 200 seats, reflecting short- to medium-haul, high-capacity service missions typical of densely scheduled commercial operations. Specific avionics fit and operator wet-lease or scheduled-service assignments are not published; however, the combination of its seating density and range implies use on trunk routes where high seat-mile efficiency is prioritized. Maintenance considerations for this airframe are governed by standard A320 family practices and the powerplant type—two IAE V2527-A5 turbofans—requiring established shop visits and engine management per manufacturer and operator programs. Unique amenities specific to this airframe are not published.

The Airbus A320-232 exemplifies the A320 family’s performance niche as a single-aisle, short- to medium-range airliner that competes directly with contemporary narrowbodies in the 150–200 seat class. With a typical cruise speed of 447 kts and a range near 3,078 nm, the type remains attractive to carriers focused on dense domestic and regional networks; comparable competing models include later-generation A320neos and Boeing 737 variants. Buyer and charter demand for a 2014 airframe like N631NK is influenced by seating density, remaining airframe life, and engine hours on the IAE V2527-A5 units, with resale and maintenance considerations driven by market appetite for high-density configured narrowbodies and the cost of fleet reconfiguration where applicable.
