N654QX

The airframe bearing tail number N654QX is an Embraer ERJ-170-200LR (E175LR) built in 2022 with manufacturer's serial number 17000933. The aircraft is owned by the Seattle-based corporation HORIZON AIR INDUSTRIES INC, which has maintained registry and operational oversight from Seattle, WA, US since acquisition. Its US registration reflects standard civil transport certification and there are no publicly cited major incident records for this specific airframe in the provided data. Ownership by a corporate operator headquartered in Seattle situates the type in a regional airline/operator context with periodic fleet valuation and maintenance cycles typical of late-model E-Jets.

This airframe is fitted in a typical dual-class regional layout, though operator configurations vary; the owner/operator commonly configures similar E175LRs in a reduced two-class layout of approximately 76 seats for Alaska/Horizon operations while the registered configuration for this airframe is 88 seats. Avionics fit is the Honeywell Primus Epic suite, typical for E-Jets and supporting integrated flight management, EFIS, and modern navigation/communication capabilities. Operational missions for this airframe focus on short- to medium-haul regional services consistent with a 2,200 nm range and cruise at 448 kts, operating from a Seattle base to domestic regional destinations. Maintenance considerations align with CF34-8E engine shop visit intervals and Embraer structural and systems maintenance programs for late-build E175LR airframes.

The Embraer ERJ-170-200LR (E175LR) occupies the regional jet niche, offering higher seat counts and longer range than earlier regional jets while retaining single-aisle operational flexibility. Competing models target similar markets and include larger regional variants and smaller single-aisle short-haul types; demand remains strong among regional carriers and corporate operators for late-build E-Jets. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2022 airframe emphasize CF34-8E engine lifecycle management and avionics/commonality benefits from the Honeywell Primus Epic fit, factors that influence operator fleet planning and secondary-market valuations.
