Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N8918B, is a Bombardier CRJ-200LR built in 2004 with manufacturer serial number 7918. It has been operated in the United States by the corporation Endeavor Air (Delta Connection) and is registered in the US. The airframe was originally delivered in a CRJ-440 44-seat configuration and later modified during its fleet life to a CRJ-200 50-seat single-class economy layout, a notable in-service change recorded on the operator’s fleet list. Public valuation and detailed condition records are not published in the supplied data.
The aircraft’s cabin was originally equipped as a 44-seat CRJ-440 and subsequently converted to a 50-seat single-class economy layout consistent with regional airline high-density operations. Avionics fit is reported as Rockwell Collins Pro Line (typical Pro Line/ProLine 4 installations reported), supporting standard regional airline navigation, communications, and flight management functions. In service with Endeavor Air (Delta Connection) the CRJ-200LR typically performs short- to medium-haul regional routes within the continental United States, operating from the carrier’s US bases and supporting Delta Connection scheduled services. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe reflect typical CRJ-200-series practices, including attention to aging-system inspections following the conversion from the CRJ-440 layout.
The Bombardier CRJ-200LR occupies the regional jet niche for 50-seat turbofan aircraft optimized for frequent short-sector utilization and high-frequency airline networks. Its performance figures—1,700 nm range and 424 kts cruise with a 41,000 ft ceiling—place it against competing regional types such as smaller Embraer regional jets and older turboprops on speed and stage length. Market demand for 50-seat regional jets is influenced by airline network strategies and scope-clause labor agreements; resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe are affected by its conversion history (CRJ-440 to CRJ-200 layout) and the commonality of the CF34-3B1 powerplant.
