N829SK

This airframe, registered as N829SK, is a Bombardier CRJ-900LR built in 2018 with manufacturer serial number 15452. The aircraft is owned by Delta Air Lines, a corporation based in the United States, and carries United States registration. Operationally this example conforms to Delta Connection regional operations standards; ownership and operator alignment with a major U.S. carrier places it within Delta’s regional fleet management and utilization pool. Notable registry actions and valuation/condition highlights: Not published.

The aircraft is typically configured in a regional two-class cabin consistent with Delta Connection SkyWest CRJ-900 operations, accommodating approximately 76 seats with a mix of first/comfort and main cabin rows. Its avionics fit is the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 4, a common suite for the CRJ-900 family that supports regional operator flight crews with integrated flight management and communications. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include short- to medium-haul regional routes within the continental United States and to nearby international points, exploiting the 1,828 nm range and cruise speed of 447 kts. Maintenance considerations align with the CRJ-900LR’s twin CF34 engine program and regional cycle usage patterns under a major network carrier’s heavy-line maintenance and component support structures.

The Bombardier CRJ-900LR occupies the regional jet niche as a stretched, higher-capacity variant in the CRJ family, offering performance suitable for 70–90 seat regional markets with a service ceiling of 41,000 ft. Competing models in its segment include smaller Airbus A220 variants and Embraer E-Jet family aircraft in terms of capacity and mission flexibility. Buyer and lease demand for CRJ-900s tends to favor operators seeking commonality within fleets and cost-effective short-haul operations; resale and maintenance considerations center on CF34 engine support, avionics commonality such as the Pro Line 4, and airframe cycle history.
