N931TB

This airframe, registered as N931TB, is a McDonnell Douglas MD-90-30 built in 1999 with manufacturer serial number 53532. The jet was produced by McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing Commercial Airplanes) and is recorded as owned by the Boeing Company (a corporate owner based in the United States) and carrying a United States registration. The record reflects a straightforward corporate ownership line rather than multiple operator transfers; the manufacturer’s consolidation into Boeing is the principal notable historical change affecting this airframe’s corporate lineage. No specific operator base, seat-count disposition, or extraordinary registry actions are published for this individual aircraft in the provided data.

The airframe is configured in the airline-standard single-aisle, five-abreast MD-90 commercial cabin layout; a specific seating count for this particular aircraft is not available in the supplied data. Avionics are centered on Honeywell systems, with Honeywell electronic flight instruments paired with a Honeywell flight management system suite consistent with airline MD‑90 installations; this fit supports typical medium-range commercial operations and airline-standard navigation and performance management. With a 2,455 nm range and a 440-knot cruise, the typical mission profile for this aircraft type entails short- to medium-haul scheduled passenger flights; maintenance considerations follow established MD-90 practices and the support legacy of McDonnell Douglas specifications under Boeing stewardship.

The MD-90-30 occupies a performance niche as a stretched, single-aisle derivative in the MD-80/90 family, optimized for medium-range routes with moderate passenger capacity in a five-abreast economy layout. Its twin IAE V2525-D5 engines offering 25,000 lbf each provide a balance of thrust suitable for the family’s mission profile. In the resale and maintenance market, legacy MD-90s are influenced by parts support and the historic manufacturer transition to Boeing; buyers and operators typically weigh airframe age, avionics standardization (such as the Honeywell suite), and corporate ownership history when assessing continued commercial deployment or component recovery.
