N741AK

This entry describes airframe N741AK, an Embraer ERJ-170-100SU delivered in 2006 with manufacturer serial number 17000138. The airframe is owned and operated within the American regional airline system by Envoy Air (American Eagle operator), a United States-based corporation, and it carries a US civil registration. No notable registry actions or transfers have been published for this specific airframe, and public valuation or condition highlights for this tail are not published.

The airframe operates in a single-class regional layout, typically configured with 76 seats in a 4-abreast cabin consistent with Embraer ERJ-170 family standards. The flightdeck is fitted with Honeywell Primus Epic-class integrated avionics as standard for E‑Jet variants, supporting regional airline operational profiles including short- to medium-haul trunk and spoke services. Typical missions for this aircraft under Envoy Air (American Eagle operator) involve high-frequency, scheduled regional routes within the United States network, where quick turnarounds and commonality with other fleet E‑Jets aid dispatch reliability. Maintenance considerations align with CF34-8E engine programs and E‑Jet fleet heavy maintenance patterns; no unique amenities or modifications for this specific tail have been published.

The Embraer ERJ-170-100SU (E170) occupies the lower end of the E‑Jet family footprint, offering regional carriers a 70–80 seat platform that bridges turboprops and larger narrowbodies with jet speed and higher cruise performance. With a cruise near 470 kts and range around 2,150 nm, the type is well suited to domestic regional markets competing against smaller variants of the Bombardier/CRJ family and inbound narrowbody types in dense feeder markets. For buyers and operators, considerations focus on airframe and engine shop visit schedules for the CF34-8E series and fleet commonality benefits; resale values and demand generally reflect the aircraft’s age, seat capacity, and integration into US regional carrier networks.
