N981NK

This airframe, registered as N981NK, is an Airbus A320-271N built in 2023 with manufacturer serial number 11433. The legal owner is the corporation BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE, located in Salt Lake City, UT, US, and the aircraft is registered in the US. No public operator or home-base assignment has been published for this specific airframe; ownership is held in trust. Condition and valuation summaries are not published for this tail, though its recent build year and neo-series specification imply contemporary systems and relatively low-time components.

The cabin is configured in a high-density single-class layout consistent with carrier-standard arrangements, accommodating approximately 186–190 passengers and listed here as 190 seats; this suggests optimization for short- to medium-haul, high-capacity deployments. Specific avionics fit, operator routing, and maintenance records for this serial are not published. Typical mission profiles for this airframe, given its seat count and stated range, would be concentrated medium-range point-to-point services within the aircraft’s published range, with operator choices influencing turnaround and utilization. Maintenance considerations for this particular aircraft follow from its installed engine type and recent build year, implying manufacturer-standard warranties and contemporary component timetables.

This unit is part of the Airbus manufacturing output as an A320-271N, reflecting the neo-series thrust option embodied by the listed engines and thrust rating. Within its performance envelope — a 3,500 nm range, a 39,100 ft ceiling and high-density seating — the airframe targets carriers requiring high single-aisle capacity on medium-range sectors. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific serial will be influenced by its 2023 build status, trust-held ownership structure, and the installed PW1127G-JM powerplants, with regulatory and market valuation details not published.
