About N132HQ
Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.
Overview
This airframe, registered as N132HQ, is an Embraer regional jet built in 2008 with manufacturer serial number 17000216. The airframe was produced by Embraer - Empresa Brasileira de Aeronáutica S.A. as an Embraer 175LR (ERJ-170-200LR) variant and is recorded in US civil registration. Owned by Republic Airways Inc, a corporation based in Indianapolis, IN, US, the aircraft has been operated in a regional airline configuration throughout its service life. Registry records and operator assignment indicate continuous revenue service under the current corporate owner with standard regional fleet maintenance and utilization patterns for an airframe of its vintage.
Operations & Cabin
The aircraft is outfitted in an approximate 80-seat single-class regional passenger layout per operator configuration, optimized for short- to medium-haul high-frequency routes. Typical mission profiles for this airframe involve shuttle and regional trunk routes where quick turnarounds and high seat density are prioritized, operated from the owner’s base in Indianapolis and other hubs served by the operator. Avionics, while not itemized in the data provided, reflect the standard Embraer regional jet fit for the 175LR family, supporting airline operational requirements and typical ETOPS-independent regional operations. Maintenance considerations follow corporate regional carrier programs, emphasizing component life limits for the CF34-8E5 engines and airframe checks aligned to an aircraft placed into service in 2008.
Model & Market Context
The Embraer 175LR (ERJ-170-200LR) sits in the regional jet niche, offering a balance of 70-88 seat capacity with a long-range option suited to 1,500-2,000 nm sectors, positioning it against variants from the Bombardier/De Havilland Q400 and smaller narrowbodies in certain mission sets. Demand in the owner/operator segment favors this model for its fuel efficiency and airport performance on high-frequency regional schedules. Resale and maintenance considerations for a 2008-build LR involve monitoring CF34-8E5 engine shop visits and airframe fatigue life; fleet buyers typically evaluate complete records, current maintenance status, and seat layout when assessing mid-life Embraer 175LR examples.
