N680AW

This airframe, registered as N680AW, is an Airbus A320-232 built in 2005 with manufacturer serial number 2630. The aircraft is recorded as owned by UMB BANK N A TRUSTEE, a corporate trustee based in Salt Lake City, UT, US, indicating an ownership structure consistent with financial or lease-related custody. The airframe carries a US registration and its recorded configuration reflects typical airline-fit variations in avionics and cabin density. Public records show the airframe as a single-certificate, trustee-held asset rather than directly airline-operated, suggesting its operational history may include leasing or collateral use.

The cabin for this A320-232 is laid out to accommodate 200 seats, consistent with higher-density single-aisle airline configurations; specific class splits and galley/restroom arrangements will vary with operator fit. Avionics are described as the Airbus A320 flight deck, with the caveat that airline fit varies—this airframe therefore may carry operator-specific flight management systems, radio suites, and cabin management interfaces depending on lease or operator modifications. Typical mission profiles for this aircraft type and configuration include short- to medium-haul scheduled services within a roughly 3,078 nm operational radius at cruise speeds near 458 kts, operating from US registries and bases. Maintenance considerations for this particular airframe reflect standard A320-series requirements and the IAE V2500 serial-engine maintenance programs, with trustee ownership often implying third-party maintenance oversight or lessor-directed records management.

The Airbus A320-232 occupies the prominent narrowbody single-aisle market niche, competing with other A320-family variants and contemporaneous narrowbodies offering similar payload-range and seat counts. With twin IAE V2500 engines rated at 25,000 lbf each, the type provides established performance for high-frequency short- to medium-range routes and dense seat layouts. Market demand for A320s remains robust in the used and leasing sectors, and trustee-held airframes like N680AW are commonly repositioned through lease returns, repossessions, or sale, requiring careful review of maintenance records and configuration provenance during transaction or remarketing.
