Aircraft History 

Japan Airlines McDonnell Douglas MD-90 JA002D represents the early generation of JAL’s MD-90 fleet, delivered in the mid-1990s as the airline upgraded its domestic narrowbody operations. JA002D flew for both Japan Airlines and later JAL Express, serving the dense Japanese domestic network linking Tokyo Haneda with Osaka, Fukuoka, Sapporo and other major cities. The MD-90’s quieter IAE V2500 engines and improved efficiency made it a strong fit for these high-frequency routes.The aircraft was withdrawn during JAL’s fleet modernisation in the early 2010s and later scrapped, marking the close of the MD-90 chapter in Japanese commercial aviation. This model captures the clean, elegant JAL livery of the era and a distinctive moment in the airline’s transition period.
