Airframe story

AI-drafted

N659QX is a Horizon Air E175LR that has been registered to Horizon Air Industries Inc since 2023. In late May 2026 it was unveiled at Portland International Airport wearing a Toy Story 5 themed livery featuring Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Jessie, and new tech toy characters Lilypad, Snappy, Atlas and Smarty Pants, a scheme dubbed To 45 and Beyond that nods to Buzz Lightyear's catchphrase while marking Horizon Air's 45th anniversary. The jet joined a fleet of nine other specially emblazoned Disney-themed Horizon jets. Horizon's E175s fly exclusively for Alaska Airlines under a capacity purchase agreement, and by 2023 the last prop-powered aircraft had retired, leaving the fleet flying E175 jets exclusively. The airframe's current chapter has it at Seattle (KSEA), likely functioning as a routine operating base.

Livery guess: Toy Story 5 'To 45 and Beyond' special livery. Snippets explicitly tie N659QX to this named Disney-themed livery unveiled in May 2026
