McDonnell Douglas MD-90 - Variants

Variants

MD-90-30

Basic variant with two V2500 engines and an EFIS cockpit.

MD-90-30IGW

Increased Gross Weight version, one built.

MD-90-30ER

Extended Range (ER) version of MD-90-30, two built.

MD-90-30T "Trunkliner"

Variant of the MD-90-30 assembled by Shanghai Aviation Industrial Corporation in the People's Republic of China. Production was initially planned to be 40, later reduced to 20, with only two built in the end. To accommodate the heavy aircraft on unsuitable runways, a dual tandem landing gear with more tires to spread the weight of the aircraft was designed for the Trunkliner, but ultimately not used in the two aircraft produced. The COMAC ARJ21 is built using tooling retained by the Chinese after the end of the Chinese MD-90-30 program.
