RESEARCH NOTES

About N127HQ

Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.

Overview

The airframe N127HQ is an Embraer regional jet built in 2008, serial number 17000206, manufactured by EMBRAER - Empresa Brasileira de Aeronáutica S.A.. This specific airframe is recorded as owned by Republic Airways Inc (a corporation based in Indianapolis, IN, US) and carries a United States registration. Its operational history centers on service under Republic Airways, with routine registry upkeep and maintenance retained under the corporate owner in Indianapolis. The aircraft is a fixed-wing multi-engine regional jet in typical line condition for its age, having a configuration and maintenance profile consistent with airline regional operations.

Operations & Cabin

The airframe conforms to Embraer model cabin options, with the manufacturer's typical dual-class layout noted as 76 seats (12/64) and single-class capacities ranging 78-88 seats depending on interior layout choices; this particular entry lists 80 seats, indicative of a higher-density regional configuration. Avionics for the ERJ 170-200LR family are airline-standard for the type, supporting regional point-to-point operations and frequent short-haul cycles. Typical mission profiles for N127HQ under Republic Airways Inc would include high-frequency regional routes feeding mainline hubs, operating out of Indianapolis and other Midwest bases. Maintenance considerations for this airframe align with CF34-8E5 engine support programs and airframe checks consistent with regional jet utilization rates.

Model & Market Context

The Embraer ERJ 170-200LR (E175LR) occupies the regional jet performance niche, offering transcontinental regional range and higher seat density compared with smaller regional turbofans. It competes with similarly sized regional jets and re-engined variants from competing manufacturers and remains in demand by regional carriers for its combination of range (2,200 nm), cruise speed (447 kts), and 80-seat capability. Resale and maintenance considerations reflect the CF34 engine support network and typical component life limits for a 2008-built airframe, with buyer interest focused on fleet commonality and utilization profile.
