N990DL

The airframe bearing tail number N990DL is a McDonnell Douglas MD-88 built in 1991 with manufacturer serial number 53342. The aircraft is registered in the US and is owned by the corporate entity __CORSAIR TWO LLC__ based in Hillsboro, Oregon. The listing for this airframe identifies a high-density passenger fit with 142 seats, and its registry reflects corporate ownership rather than a named airline operator. No additional public registry actions or valuation records are published for this specific airframe in the provided data.

This airframe is configured in a high-density single-aisle passenger layout, explicitly listed with 142 seats, which indicates an operator-specific, high-capacity cabin arrangement. With a cruise speed of 450 kts and a range of 2,055 nm, the aircraft is suited to medium-range passenger missions where dense seating and frequent rotations are priorities. The powerplant selection of 2× Pratt & Whitney JT8D-219 engines with 21,690 lbf thrust each governs operational performance and maintenance cycles for this specific MD-88 airframe. Based on the owner’s listed location in Hillsboro, Oregon, the aircraft’s operator/home base activities would likely be coordinated from that region, though no explicit operator airline is named in the available data.

The McDonnell Douglas MD-88 of this build year occupies a niche as an older, medium-range, fixed-wing multi-engine passenger airframe: a certified product of McDonnell Douglas distinguishable by its specific engine and capacity characteristics. The combination of a 142-seat high-density cabin, a 2,055 nm range, and a 37,000 ft ceiling defines its operational envelope and informs maintenance and resale considerations for this particular serial (53342). Buyer and operator interest in an airframe such as N990DL will be framed by its age (1991), engine type (JT8D-219) and configured seating density, all of which materially affect lifecycle maintenance planning and secondary-market valuation.
