RESEARCH NOTES

About N185SY

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

Overview

The airframe bearing tail number N185SY is an Embraer ERJ-175LR (designation ERJ-170-200LR) completed in 2016 with manufacturer serial number 17000600. The aircraft is owned by Skywest Airlines Inc, a corporation based in Saint George, UT, US, and is operated in a regional airline role consistent with its owner's business model. The airframe carries a US registration and is typically configured and deployed in the Alaska/SkyWest regional market; ownership is recorded to Skywest Airlines Inc in Saint George, Utah. Public registry actions beyond the stated ownership and registration are not published for this specific airframe.

Operations & Cabin

This specific ERJ-175LR is fitted in a 76-seat layout described as 12 business + 64 economy (76 total), reflecting the typical Alaska/SkyWest regional configuration for which it is intended. In service with Skywest Airlines Inc, the aircraft is employed on short- to medium-range regional routes where a balance of payload and range is required; these missions align with the listed 2,200 nm range and a cruise speed of 447 kts. Cabin amenities and avionics fit for this serial are not published beyond the seating configuration, but the interior arrangement indicates a focus on mixed premium/economy regional service. Maintenance and operational considerations follow the fixed-wing multi-engine category norms for active regional turbofan aircraft operated by a major regional carrier.

Model & Market Context

The Embraer ERJ-175LR family, represented here by N185SY, occupies a performance niche as a regional jet offering moderate range and high single-stage cruise speed for its class. With twin GE CF34-8E5 engines providing 14,510 lbf thrust each and a service ceiling of 41,000 ft, the type competes with similarly sized regional jets in airline feed and thin long-haul markets. Demand among regional carriers and charter operators remains tied to seating flexibility and maintenance status; resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe will reflect its 2016 vintage, serial 17000600, and continuous operation under Skywest Airlines Inc.
