The MD-90 program was launched in November 1988. The MD-90s first flight was on February 22 1993, and certification was awarded on November 16 1994. The launch customer for the MD-90 was Delta with 31 orders. Other major customers include Saudi Arabian Airlines and Japan Air System.
The most important changes for the MD-90 was the introduction of the two V2500 turbofans. At 25,000 pounds of thrust on the MD-90-30, the V2500s are the largest, heaviest and most powerful engines to be rear mounted on any airliner. More importantly though, the V2500 is highly regarded for its efficiency and fuel economy. Other changes to the MD-90 include the 4 foot 6 inch fuselage stretch forward of the wing, allowing seating for an extra 10 passengers. The stretch is forward of the wing to compensate for the extra weight of the engines. The MD-90 also features an EFIS glass flightdeck based on that in the MD-88, and other detail improvements such as a revised passenger interior. The MD-90 is the largest member of the Boeing/ McDonnell Douglas DC-9/MD-80/MD-90/717 family. Following the 1997 merger of Boeing and McDonnell Douglas, Boeing announced that production of the MD-90 production would end will cease once all current orders were fulfilled which happened in 1999. |
