N9018E

This article covers airframe N9018E, an Airbus-built single-aisle airliner delivered in 2014 with manufacturer serial number 6150. The aircraft is an Airbus A319-115 (WL) registered in the US and is currently held in trust by UMB BANK NA TRUSTEE of Salt Lake City, UT, US, reflecting a financial-owner rather than a direct operating airline. The airframe's powerplant configuration is documented as 2× CFM56-5B, with CFM56-5B6 series reported for the operator fleet in summary fleet reports. Over its service life this airframe has been maintained to mainline passenger configuration standards and is associated with typical registry and trust-holding arrangements rather than notable public display or preservation actions.

The aircraft is fitted in a 147-seat mainline/high-density passenger layout suitable for short- to medium-haul scheduled operations within its published range and performance envelope. As configured, the cabin reflects a high-density single-class arrangement commonly used on domestic and transcontinental missions where seating capacity and frequency are prioritized. Avionics and systems are those standard to the A319-115 family as delivered by Airbus for this variant; specific retrofits or optional equipment for this airframe are not published in the supplied data. Maintenance considerations for the type include the common CFM56-5B engine support requirements and airframe checks consistent with commercial passenger operations under trust ownership.

The Airbus A319-115 (WL) occupies the short- to medium-range single-aisle market niche within the A320 family, offering a balance of capacity and range that competes with smaller variants of competitor families. With a 147-seat, high-density fit this particular airframe is targeted at operators prioritizing seat-mile economics over premium cabin configurations. Market and resale considerations for such airframes typically center on engine shop visit status, remaining structural life, and lease/ownership encumbrances—factors implicit where aircraft are held in trust by financial institutions rather than directly by operators.
