N991NK

The airframe bearing registration N991NK is an Airbus A320-271N built in 2024 with manufacturer serial number 11862. The aircraft is registered in the US and is recorded as owned by BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE, a corporate trustee based in Salt Lake City, UT, US. There are no public records of other operators or prior ownership transfers; current custody appears to be held in trust under the named corporate trustee. Valuation and detailed condition reports have not been published publicly.

This specific A320-271N carries a high-density single-aisle cabin configured for 190 seats in an airline layout, indicating a focus on short- to medium-haul revenue operations with maximum passenger capacity for its class. The aircraft’s twin IAE PW1127G-JM engines support fuel-efficient cruise at 447 kts and extend mission capability to the listed 3,400 nm range, enabling transcontinental sectors for U.S.-based operators. As a trust-owned asset registered in the United States, routine maintenance, records retention, and operational dispatch would follow U.S. registry requirements and typical Airbus A320neo family maintenance programs. There are no published notes of unique cabin amenities or retrofits specific to this serial.

The Airbus A320-271N is part of the A320neo family that targets single-aisle short- to medium-haul airline operations with improved fuel burn and lower noise compared with prior generation A320ceo models. With 190 seats in a high-density layout and modern PW1127G powerplants, this airframe competes directly with similarly outfitted A320neos and Boeing 737 MAX single-aisle types for low-cost carriers and high-frequency network routes. Buyer and lease market demand typically favors late-production, low-cycle A320neos for their operational economics; resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe will reflect standard A320neo support packages, engine shop visit planning for the PW1100/1127 family, and the aircraft’s service and flight-hour history as recorded under its U.S. registration.
