N931NK

The airframe with tail number N931NK is an Airbus-built narrow‑body first delivered in 2020, manufacturer serial number 9548. The airframe is registered in the US and is owned by BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE, a corporate trustee entity based in Salt Lake City, UT, US. The ownership record indicates corporate trust holding rather than direct airline ownership, a common arrangement for aircraft leasing and financing. Notable registry details emphasize the US registration and trustee ownership; no separate operator name or additional transaction history is published in the available data.

The airframe is configured in a high‑density single‑class cabin with approximately 190 seats, reflecting an operator configuration focused on maximizing passenger capacity. In typical service this configuration supports medium‑range, high‑throughput missions within the aircraft’s 3,400 nm range and cruise speed of 450 kts, consistent with short‑to‑medium haul network operations. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe will center on the geared turbofan IAE PW1127G‑JM engines, each rated at 26,345 lbf, and on preserving the high‑utilization cabin layout; no bespoke amenities or operator‑specific modifications are published for this registration. The trustee ownership suggests the aircraft may be leased to an airline operator and maintained to airline operational standards under that arrangement.

As an Airbus A320‑271N airframe, Airbus A320-271N examples occupy the contemporary single‑aisle market niche for efficient, short‑to‑medium range operations with modern geared turbofan propulsion. Competing types in the segment include later A320neo family siblings and comparable narrow‑bodies from other manufacturers; demand typically favors high‑density configurations for low‑cost carriers and high‑frequency trunk routes. For resale and lease, considerations include engine support for the IAE PW1127G‑JM type, the aircraft’s 2020 build year and remaining airframe life, and the implications of trustee ownership on transaction structure.
