Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N908NK is an Airbus Airbus A320-271N (A320neo) built in 2018 with manufacturer serial number 8658. The airframe is registered in the US and is held in trust by Wilmington Trust Co Trustee, a corporate owner located in Wilmington, DE, US. Public records indicate the aircraft's recorded ownership is corporate trust-based; no other operators or transfers are published in the supplied data. Maintenance status and valuation are not published in the supplied dataset, and there are no additional documented registry actions or operator base details beyond the trust ownership and US registration.

This specific A320neo is fitted with a high-density cabin layout configured for 182 seats in a Spirit-style arrangement, typically described as approximately 8 Big Front / 174 Economy in comparable airline configurations. As a narrow-body fixed-wing multi-engine airframe, its mission profile in airline service would typically include short- to medium-haul trunk routes within the aircraft's 3,400 nm range and cruise operations near 447 kts at ceilings up to 39,100 ft. No bespoke onboard amenities or unique avionics fit details are published for this airframe in the supplied information. Maintenance considerations for the type would generally follow Airbus A320neo program schedules and Pratt & Whitney PW1127G-JM engine shop visit intervals, though specific status for N908NK is not provided.

The Airbus A320-271N (A320neo) occupies the single-aisle, narrow-body market niche focused on improved fuel efficiency and lower operating costs versus prior-generation A320ceo variants. With two PW1127G-JM geared turbofan engines producing 27,120 lbf each, the model targets airlines seeking higher seat density and extended range in the 3,000–3,500 nm class. Competing types include other A320neo-family variants and Boeing 737 MAX derivatives. For buyers and lessors, the high-density 182-seat cabin configuration is attractive to ultra-low-cost carriers but may affect residual value and remarketing flexibility compared with standard two- or three-class layouts. Maintenance and resale considerations for this serial (MSN 8658) would follow market demand for late-2010s neo-series airframes and the support landscape for Pratt & Whitney geared turbofans.
