N902NK

This airframe, registered as N902NK, is an Airbus Airbus A320-271N (A320neo) built in 2016 with manufacturer serial number 6907. The airframe is held in trust and listed under ownership of WILMINGTON TRUST CO TRUSTEE (a corporation located in Wilmington, DE, US). The aircraft carries a US registration (US) and is operated in a high-density configuration by Spirit Airlines. The trustee ownership structure indicates the airframe has been part of a finance or leasing arrangement rather than a private individual fleet; no separate sale or de-registration events are published for this specific tail in the supplied data.

The aircraft is outfitted in a High-density single-class (approx. 190 seats) cabin layout operated by Spirit Airlines, reflecting a short- to medium-haul, high-capacity low-cost carrier mission profile. With a high-density interior, turnarounds and seat-utilization are optimized for frequent, point-to-point scheduled services typical of ultra-low-cost carrier operations. Avionics and maintenance specifics are not published in the provided data; however, the PW1127G-JM geared turbofan installation typically requires operator adherence to manufacturer- and engine-program maintenance cycles and has implications for engine shop visit planning relative to older non-geared engine types. The aircraft’s registration in the United States positions its maintenance and continuing airworthiness oversight under US regulatory frameworks.

The Airbus A320-271N (A320neo) is part of the A320neo family targeting fuel efficiency and lower operating costs versus previous generation single-aisle types, fitting the short- to medium-range high-density market niche. With a 3,400 nm range and seating for 190, this configuration competes directly with high-capacity variants of other single-aisle types used by low-cost carriers and leisure operators. Buyer and lessor demand is strongly influenced by the airframe’s engine type—here the PW1127G-JM—and remaining program support; trustee ownership structures like WILMINGTON TRUST CO TRUSTEE commonly reflect leasing arrangements that affect resale channels and remarketing timelines.
