N704US

The airframe bearing tail number N704US is an Airbus A319-112 built in 1998 with manufacturer serial 922. The airframe is recorded in corporate trust ownership as owned by 'UMB BANK N A TRUSTEE', a corporation based in Salt Lake City, UT, US, and it carries a United States registration. Operator records list a typical mainline configuration and suggest the airframe has been maintained to standard passenger‑service norms; specific remarketing or major registry events are not published in the supplied data. Condition and valuation details are not provided here beyond its continuing suitability for mainline passenger operations and conversion flexibility.

Cabin records for this specific airframe report a typical mainline layout noted as approximately C8 / Y120 (business/economy) in operator records, though configurations may vary by airline conversion and retrofit. As equipped with two CFM56-5B6 turbofans and a cruise speed near 514 kts, the aircraft is suited to short‑ to medium‑haul trunk routes within continental and transcontinental networks consistent with mainline A319 deployment. Avionics fit and specific interior amenities for this tail number are not detailed in the supplied data; maintenance considerations for this airframe align with industry practice for late‑1990s A319s, including engine shop visits and structural checks commensurate with its vintage. The trustee ownership structure implies leasing, financing, or asset‑management roles rather than direct airline operation by the trustee itself.

The Airbus A319-112 occupies the short‑to‑medium range single‑aisle market niche, offering economics attractive to airlines seeking lower capacity on mainline routes while retaining commonality with the A320 family. Competing models typically include the Boeing 737‑700 and regionalized narrowbodies; buyer and charter demand centers on availability of aircraft in the 120–180 seat class with efficient CFM56 propulsion. For this 1998 airframe, key resale and maintenance considerations include remaining structural life, engine cycles on the CFM56-5B6 units, and interior refurbishment to meet contemporary passenger expectations or conversion specifications.
