Airframe story
N607FR is a 2022 Airbus A321-271NX, serial 11195, registered under Bank of Utah as trustee from 2024. On April 15, 2025, operating as Frontier flight 3506, it sustained nose wheel and engine damage during a go-around at Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The NTSB reported that the left nose wheel had detached, with fractured components and gouging on the nose gear structure. Debris from the gear was then ingested by the left engine, damaging the inlet cowl liner, fan blades, thrust reverser, and guide vanes. A later report noted the aircraft was still on the ground in San Juan on April 28th 2025, though its current status cannot be confirmed from available sources. Stabilator's flight data shows a 63-day stay at Birmingham (KBHM), which may be likely related to post-incident repair work, though no source confirms Birmingham as the repair site.
Livery guess: Frontier Airlines. The incident report identifies the aircraft as operating Frontier Airlines flight 3506, and its registry structure under Bank of Utah as trustee matches sister ships also flying for Frontier.
