Model & Market Context
This entry covers airframe N905NK, an Airbus-built narrowbody registered in the United States. The airframe is a Airbus A320-271N (A320neo) completed in 2016 with manufacturer serial number 7334. Ownership is recorded to Wilmington Trust Co Trustee (a corporate trustee located in Wilmington, DE, United States); no public record of airline operator or leasing history is published for this specific registration. The airframe is registered in the US; other valuation or detailed condition assessments are not published in the provided data.
The cabin for this airframe is configured in a high-density single-class carrier layout, recorded in fleet records as approximately C8/Y174, indicating a carrier-specific, single-class fit for 182 seats optimized for short- to medium-haul trunk operations. The avionics fit is the standard Airbus A320 family glass flightdeck, an FMGS-based avionics suite, providing the common type-rating systems and automation familiar to A320neo crews. Typical mission profiles for this configuration emphasize high-density point-to-point or thin-scope domestic and regional trunk routes within the aircraft’s 3,500 nm range and cruise at about 450 kts. No unique cabin amenities, specialized interiors, or specific maintenance programs for this serial/registration were provided.
The Airbus A320-271N (A320neo) sits in the narrowbody single-aisle market focused on improved fuel efficiency and lower operating costs relative to earlier A320ceo variants, driven by its geared turbofan engines such as the PW1127G-JM. With a typical high-density seating of 182 for this example, it targets airlines seeking increased single-class capacity for dense domestic or short international sectors. Competing models include later-generation A320neo family members and single-aisle types from other manufacturers offering similar seat-mile economics. For this individual airframe, ownership by a trust corporation suggests possible use in leasing arrangements or asset-holding structures; without published maintenance status or operator history, specific resale or maintenance-cycle considerations remain undefined.
