N730YX

This airframe, registered N730YX, is an Embraer E175LR (ERJ-170-200LR) built in 2015 with manufacturer serial number 17000518. The aircraft is owned by REPUBLIC AIRWAYS INC (a corporation based in Indianapolis, IN, US), and has been operated in regional airline service under U.S. registration. Recorded ownership by Republic Airways marks its entry into a major U.S. regional operator fleet, and the airframe has been maintained to commercial regional standards under that corporate account. Notable registry actions include standard U.S. civil registration and operator-configured seating declarations with the FAA; condition reports reflect an in-service regional jet maintained to typical line and heavy-check cycles for this model.

The FAA records show a cabin outfitted with 88 seats for this registration, although operator configurations commonly deploy a 76-seat dual-class layout for United Express and similar regional partners; operator-configured seat counts may therefore vary from the FAA filing. Typical missions for this airframe include short- to medium-haul regional routes where its LR (long-range) capability is used to link spoke cities to major hubs. Avionics for the E-Jet family on comparable deliveries are typically the Honeywell Primus Epic suite, and this airframe is reported with the standard E-Jets avionics fit for operational crew workflows. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft follow Republic Airways’ corporate maintenance program, with line maintenance at home base in Indianapolis and scheduled heavy checks per manufacturer intervals.

The Embraer E175LR occupies the regional jet niche between smaller regional turbofans and larger single-aisle airliners, offering a balance of passenger capacity and range for 70–100 seat markets. Competing models include variants of the Bombardier CRJ family and the newer Airbus A220 in overlapping mission roles. For buyers and lessors, considerations center on engine life-cycle (CF34-8E5) and the airframe’s 2015 vintage, which positions it in the mid-life resale and lease market with steady demand from regional carriers focusing on unit-cost efficiency and fleet commonality.
