RESEARCH NOTES

About N103DY

Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.

Overview

This airframe, registered N103DY, is an Airbus A321-211 (A321-200, winglets) built in 2020 with manufacturer serial number 9538. The aircraft is owned by Delta Air Lines, Inc. (a corporation based in Atlanta, GA, US) and carries a United States registration. As a Delta-operated airframe its operational base is consistent with the owner’s primary hub network centered in Atlanta.

Operations & Cabin

Cabin configuration and seating count are not published in the supplied data; however, as an A321-200 series airframe it typically supports single-aisle, high-density layouts for short- to medium-haul operations. Avionics fit is not detailed in the material provided, but the platform commonly carries modern Airbus flight decks suitable for extended domestic and transcontinental use. With a cruise speed of 430 kts and a range of 3,024 nm, this aircraft is well-suited to Delta’s domestic trunk routes and transcontinental missions from its Atlanta base. Maintenance considerations specific to this airframe include standard support for the CFM56-5B3 turbofan family and typical A321 airframe checks as dictated by operator maintenance programs.

Model & Market Context

The Airbus A321-211 occupies the medium-range, single-aisle performance niche within the A320 family, offering higher capacity than smaller single-aisle types while retaining similar operating economics. Competing models in this space include the Boeing 737-800/737-8 variants; buyer and charter demand for 2020-build examples remains strong due to younger airframe age and remaining lease/operational life. The aircraft is categorized as fixed-wing multi-engine under US registration.
