HISTORY ASPECTS: The Delta MD-90, registration N910DN, was one of the standout aircraft in Delta Air Lines' fleet, especially in its iconic "Colors in Motion" livery. The MD-90 was part of the McDonnell Douglas family, an extended version of the MD-80, offering improved fuel efficiency and greater passenger capacity. Delivered to Delta in the mid-1990s, the MD-90 was used primarily on domestic routes, where its range and passenger capacity made it an ideal choice for medium-haul flights. N910DN became a familiar sight to Delta passengers, particularly in the southeastern United States, as it operated out of the airline’s Atlanta hub. The MD-90 was introduced as a quieter, more fuel-efficient variant, powered by two IAE V2500 engines. This technological leap helped Delta reduce operational costs and improve environmental efficiency, allowing for quieter takeoffs and landings, which made it popular at airports with noise restrictions. N910DN, like other MD-90s, provided a smooth and reliable flight experience, contributing to the plane’s longevity in Delta’s service until its retirement in 2020. It became synonymous with Delta’s modernization efforts during the late 1990s and early 2000s. The “Colors in Motion” livery, featured on N910DN, was introduced in 2000 and became a symbol of Delta’s brand identity. The vibrant flowing colors on the tail and updated Delta logo represented the airline’s forward momentum and global aspirations. N910DN, in this distinctive livery, stood out as one of the most recognizable planes in the sky, and it remained a part of Delta’s fleet for two decades before the MD-90 series was gradually phased out in favor of newer, more advanced aircraft. This 1:400 scale model, featuring the "Colors in Motion" livery, is a must-have for collectors and aviation enthusiasts. Meticulously crafted to capture every detail, from the iconic tail design to the sleek fuselage, this replica is a perfect representation of one of Delta’s most beloved workhorses. Add this piece of aviation history to your collection and commemorate the legacy of the MD-90 in Delta’s distinguished fleet.
