1. Prefix: VN
- The VN prefix indicates the country of registration. In this case, VN stands for Vietnam, meaning the aircraft is registered with Vietnam's civil aviation authority, the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam (CAAV).
- Each country has a unique one- or two-character prefix assigned by the ICAO, based on radio call signs allocated by the International Telecommunications Union (ITU).
- The A268 portion is the registration suffix, which is unique to the individual aircraft within Vietnam's registry.
- The suffix typically consists of a combination of letters and numbers (1 to 5 characters) assigned by the national aviation authority. In this case, it starts with the letter A followed by the number 268.
- The structure of the suffix can vary by country, but in Vietnam, it often follows a pattern where the letter may indicate the type of operator or aircraft category, though specific details about Vietnam’s suffix conventions are not fully standardized in public records. The numbers and letters together ensure the registration is unique.
- VN-A268 is assigned to an Embraer ERJ-135BJ Legacy 600, a business jet manufactured in 2009, with the serial number 14501071.
- It is operated by Empresa Aviacion Interamericana S.A. and has been associated with Vietstar Airlines in some records, though it is primarily a private jet.
- This aircraft was the first business jet registered in Vietnam, a milestone noted in August 2018. It has been photographed at airports such as Ho Chi Minh City Tan Son Nhat (SGN/VVTS), Hong Kong (HKG/VHHH), and Macau (VMMC).
- The aircraft is used for private or corporate purposes, as Vietnam’s business jet market is small but growing, with only a few such aircraft registered in the country.
