N112DU2019 Airbus A220-100

Overview

This airframe, registered as N112DU, is an Airbus A220-100 (BD-500-1A10) built in 2019 with manufacturer serial number 50031. The aircraft is owned and operated by Delta Air Lines, Inc. of Atlanta, GA, US, registered in the US registry. Entered service with Delta following manufacture in 2019, and it has been maintained within the operator’s regional narrowbody fleet since delivery. As a relatively recent build, the airframe reflects first-owner condition and standard operator configuration for a two-class Delta A220-100.

Operations & Cabin

The aircraft carries Delta’s two-class cabin layout configured as 12 First Class / 97 Economy (Comfort+ rows forward of main cabin), yielding a total of 109 seats optimized for short- to medium-haul regional and transcontinental missions. The cockpit baseline is fitted with Rockwell Collins Pro Line Fusion (A220 cockpit baseline / operator fit varies) avionics, with operator-specific installations and spare-system practices applied per Delta maintenance standards. Typical missions for this airframe reflect point-to-point regional routes and higher-frequency short-haul services operated from Delta’s Atlanta base, with payload-range capability supporting flexible scheduling within its 3,600 nm range and cruise speed of 470 kts. Maintenance considerations align with the GTF engine architecture and airline heavy-check cycles for a 2019-build narrowbody.

Model & Market Context

The Airbus A220-100 (BD-500-1A10) represented by this airframe occupies a niche providing single-aisle efficiency with modern high-bypass geared turbofan engines and lower-seat-count flexibility, evidenced by the 109-seat two-class Delta fit. Its specifications, 3,600 nm range, 470 kts cruise, and 41,000 ft ceiling, highlight a regional-to-short-transcontinental performance envelope attractive to network carriers seeking right-sized capacity. Fleet managers monitor GTF-specific maintenance pathways and avionics commonality when assessing residual value and resale potential for A220 airframes of similar build years and serial-class.
