N769YX

This entry covers airframe N769YX, an Embraer Embraer ERJ-170/175 family — ERJ 170-200LR (E175LR) built in 2023 with manufacturer serial number 17000954. The aircraft is owned by REPUBLIC AIRWAYS INC, a corporation based in Indianapolis, IN, US, and is registered in the US; it appears as a modern addition to the operator’s regional fleet. Delivered new into service in 2023 to Republic Airways, the airframe carries a contemporary avionics fit and a high-density interior specification that factors into its assessed market value of $57,600,000. There are no additional public registry events recorded beyond initial delivery and current ownership in the supplied data.

The airframe is fitted with a high-density, single-class cabin configured for 88 seats, though the platform is operator-configurable and many operators elect to use 76–78-seat layouts for regional service. Avionics are provided by Honeywell Primus Epic, supporting advanced flight-deck functionality and commonality with other modern regional jets in airline fleets. In Republic Airways’ typical usage, this variant is deployed on short- to medium-haul regional routes where high seat density and frequent cycles are prioritized; its performance and systems suite support rapid turnarounds and fleet-standard maintenance programs. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft follow the E175LR lineage — emphasis on engine shop visits for the GE CF34-8E5 and routine checks aligned with a high-utilization regional schedule.

The Embraer ERJ-170/175 family — ERJ 170-200LR (E175LR) occupies the lower-capacity single-aisle regional market niche, offering a balance of range (2,150 nm) and cruise speed (460 kts) suited to airlines operating frequent short- to medium-haul sectors. Competing models include the smaller variants of the Airbus A220 family and certain stretched CRJ/ARJ offerings, though the E175LR emphasizes lower operating costs per seat in high-density configurations. Buyer demand for this configuration tends toward regional carriers seeking high-density seating and fleet commonality; resale and maintenance considerations center on engine life remaining for the GE CF34-8E5, avionics upgrades to platforms like Honeywell Primus Epic, and the impact of its 88-seat layout on secondary market appeal.
